←HW 13 (Ch13)Question 10 of 16-<Your answer is partially correct.>(a) Number i 9.34E-4(b) Number iSeveral planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus) are encircled by rings, perhaps composed of material thatfailed to form a satellite. In addition, many galaxies contain ring-like structures. Consider ahomogeneous thin ring of mass 3.3 x 1022 kg and outer radius 4.5 x 108 m (the figure). (a) Whatgravitational attraction does it exert on a particle of mass 85 kg located on the ring's central axis adistance 4.4 x 108 m from the ring center? (b) Suppose that, starting at that point, the particle fallsfrom rest as a result of the attraction of the ring of matter. What is the speed with which it passesthrough the center of the ring?RMmUnits NUnits0.05 / 1:

The mass and radius of a planet are M and R, respectively. A satellite of mass m orbits the planet in an elliptical orbit. At its closest position, the altitude of the satellite is 0.5R and its velocity is v. What is the speed of the satellite (in terms of v) at its farthest position, where its altitude is 2R? 0.25v 0.55v 0.45v 0.30v 0.40v 0.60v 0.50v 0.35v
Please answer fast Three uniform spheres of masses m1 = 2.50 kg, m2 = 4.00 kg, and m3 = 6.50 kg are placed at the corners of a right triangle (see figure below). Calculate the magnitude of the resultant gravitational force (in 10-11 N) on the object of mass m2, assuming the spheres are isolated from the rest of the Universe.
The mass of the Hubble spacecraft is 1.11 x 10ʻkg. Determine the weight of the spacecraft at the orbital altitude, which is 560km above the Earth's surface. The mass of the Earth is 5.972 x 1024kg and the radius of the Earth is 6370 km.
Plaskett's binary system consists of two stars that revolve in a circular orbit about a center of mass midway between them. This statement implies that the masses of the two stars are equal (see figure below). Assume the orbital speed of each star is V = 240 km/s and the orbital period of each is 12.1 days. Find the mass M of each star. (For comparison, the mass of our Sun is 1.99 x 1030 kg.) solar masses XCM M
Astronomical observations of our Milky Way galaxy indicate that it has a mass of about 8 x 1011 solar masses. A star orbiting near the galaxy's periphery is 5.7 x 104 light years from its center. (For your calculations, assume that the galaxy's mass is concentrated near its center.) (a) What should the orbital period of that star be? yr (b) If its period is 5.2 x 10 years instead, what is the mass of the galaxy? Such calculations are used to imply the existence of "dark matter" in the universe and have indicated, for example, the existence of very massive black holes at the centers of some galaxies. solar masses
A neutron star is an astrophysical object having a mass of roughly 2.8 × 1030 kg (about 1.4 times the mass of the sun) but a radius of only about 12 km. If you were in a circular orbit of radius 320 km (about 200 mi), how long would it take you to go once around the star? It would take about _______ s to go once around the star.
Plaskett's binary system consists of two stars that revolve in a circular orbit about a center of mass midway between them. This statement implies that the masses of the two stars are equal (see figure below). Assume the orbital speed of each star is v| = 225 km/s and the orbital period of each is 11.6 days. Find the mass M of each star. (For comparison, the mass of our Sun is 1.99 x 1030 kg.) M XCM M Part 1 of 3 - Conceptualize From the given data, it is difficult to estimate a reasonable answer to this problem without working through the details and actually solving it. A reasonable guess might be that each star has a mass equal to or slightly larger than our Sun because fourteen days is short compared to the periods of all the Sun's planets. Part 2 of 3 - Categorize The only force acting on each star is the central gravitational force of attraction which results in a centripetal acceleration. When we solve Newton's second law, we can find the unknown mass in terms of the variables…
