(Based on Curtis Problem 2.38 with different values): A meteoroid is first observed approaching the earth when it is 384,000 km from the center of the earth with a true anomaly of 135°. If the speed of the meteoroid at that time is 3.075 km/s, calculate 3.075 km/s 402,000 km Earth 135' if the distance and true anomaly remain the same, find the velocity at which we should be worried the meteoroid will hit Earth (assuming a perfectly spherical Earth). [Answer 4.950 km/s]

Starting from one oasis , a camel walks 25km in a direction 30° south west and then walks 30 km towards the north to a second oasis . What distance separates the two oases?
In class, we used the 1967 gravity formula to derive the change in gravitational acceleration g with latitude, and we calculated the result at latitude o = 45°. Plot the rate of change of g with latitude () in units of mgal/km, from the equator to the pole (ø = 0° to ø = 90°). Be careful with the units; you will need to convert radians to km. (Recall that there are 27 radians in a full circle, 360°.) do
Hello. Answer is s=5.76m (how far the car travels when the driver slams brake on an inclined surface). I am uploading this question as the example answer's working out was so horrific I cannot follow through. I would like to see working out how the calculations equate to the answer being s=5.76m. Many thanks
A steel wire connects two trains at rest on the same track. The wire will snapif it is stretched by as much as 1 percent. The trains begin to accelerate in such away that their velocities, as measured in the ground frame, are always equal.Eventually, the wire snaps. Explain carefully why this happens. How fast are thetrains moving when the wire snaps?
