You're designing a mission with a special type of rocket, a nuclear thermal rocket (NTR). Since it uses a nuclear reactor to heat the propellant, it can achieve an exhaust velocity of vex = 5.65 km/s. The crew's habitat space, the rocket itself, the shadow shield to protect from radiation, and the instrument payload for scientific research all have a combined mass of 607 x 103 kg, and the propellant is 3,638 x 103 kg. What is the total delta-V of the rocket in km/s?
a. Calculate the surface temperature of Pluto and Charon at perihelion, assuming both bodies are rapid rotators and in equilibrium with the solar radiation field. b. Calculate the escape velocity from Pluto and Charon, and compare these numbers with the velocity of N2, CH4, and H2O molecules. c. Given your answers in (a) and (b), explain qualitatively the differences in surface ice coverage for Pluto and Charon.
An infrared spectrometer on Dawn found something unexpected on Ceres's surface. Its presence suggested that Ceres might have formed farther from the Sun, or been impacted by objects from a more-distant part of the solar system. What was this finding? a The presence of clay-like minerals with ammonia bound up in them. b The infrared spectrum of Ceres's surface is essentially identical to that of most obects in the Kuiper belt. c The fact that Ceres is covered with small dark particles that appear identical to the composition of Uranus's rings d The presence of a thick cloud layer made of sulfuric acid, similar to what is observed at Venus
Jupiter's moon, Io, loses about 1140.0 kg/s of sulfur dioxide to Jupiter's magnetosphere. At this rate, what percent of its mass would Io lose in 6.8 × 109 years? Io has a mass of about 1 × 1023 kg and there are 3.15 × 107 seconds in a a year.
a. A binary system consists of star A with mass of 3.8 x 100 Kg and star B with mass of 3.2 x 1030 kg. Their centres are separated by 9.8 AU (1.5 x 10¹1m) Calculate how far the centre of mass of the system is from star A. b. What is the reduced mass of such system in part a? c. A point has coordinates (x,y,z) in cartesian coordinate system, use spherical coordinates as generalized coordinates to calculate dy d. Positions of two planets are given as (-4.00, 2.94,-0.10) AU and (6.41, 6.54,-0.37) AU. Find the distance between them? Attach File Browse Local Files Browse Content Collection
A black hole is an object so massive that not even light can escape, one way to define the size of a black hole is by the Schwarzschild Radius, which is the radius at which the escape velocity is equal to the speed of light. If we were to condense the Earth into a black hole, what would be the size of its Schwarzschild Radius?
Part A What is the escape speed from an asteroid of diameter 330 km with a density of 2110 kg/m³? Express your answer in meters per second. ΑΣφ ? m/s
What is the escape velocity is km/s from Jupiters exosphere, which begins about 993 km above the surface ? Assume the Gravitational constant is G= 6.67 x10-11m3 kg-1s-2, and that's Jupiter has a mass of 1.8999999999999998e+27kg and a radius of 68.0 x103km
Neptune has a mass of 1.0 × 1026 kg and is 4.5 × 109 km from the Sun with an orbital period of 165 years. Planetesimals in the outer primordial solar system 4.5 billion years ago coalesced into Neptune over hundreds of millions of years. If the primordial disk that evolved into our present day solar system had a radius of 1011 km and if the matter that made up these planetesimals that later became Neptune was spread out evenly on the edges of it, what was the orbital period of the outer edges of the primordial disk?
