Problem B) The mass of the Earth is 5.97 x 1024 kg and the mass of the Sun is 1.99 x 1030 kg. The average distance between the Sun and the Earth is 1.5 x 1011 m from their centers. Where is the center of mass of the Earth-Sun system located with respect to the center of the Sun? If the radius of the Sun is 6.96 x 108 m, is the center of mass within the Sun or outside the Sun?
An object of mass, M is dropped near the surface of the earth such that the gravitational field provides a constant downward force on the object.

Problem 1 Not So Simultaneous = The positions of two masses, ma and mb, are described by the equations: a(t) 3A sin (4wt) and xb (t) = 2A sin (3wt). (a) Not including t = 0, what are the first three times that the masses will pass through their respective equilibrium positions simultaneously? (b) Find the two expressions that would describe each mass' velocity. What were the velocities at the times you found in part a?
You have been chosen as the test subject for the newest attraction at Disney. This attraction is a single-person roller coaster ride that has a 25.0 m drop followed by a plunger/piston device that brings the ride to rest. The plunger/piston is connected to a cylinder that contains 250 kg of water. The cart has a mass of 75.0 kg and starts at rest from the top of the track. To determine the total mass of the cart during the ride you must add your mass (MY MASS IS 55KG). As the cart moves down the track it has been determined that friction in the wheels and axles results in the production of 2750 J of thermal and sound energy combined. The plunger/piston at the bottom of the device has been designed to stop the cart with a maximum acceleration of 5.00 g’s (i.e., 49.0 m/s2). Question: The remaining kinetic energy of the cart is removed as work is done pushing in the plunger/piston and compressing the water inside the cylinder. Use the work equation to determine the displacement of the…
Matthew Damon is a 70-kg astronaut on a space-walk outside the international space station. He is at rest when the tether line connecting him to the space station breaks. In order to make it back to the space station he throws his 2.0-kg hammer at a speed of 14 m/s away from the space station. As a result, what speed does the astronaut move toward the capsule? a) 1.5 m/s b) 5.0 m/s c) 0.40 m/s d) 3.5 m/s
A knife thrower throws a knife toward a 300 g target that is sliding in her direction at a speed of 2.30 m/s on a horizontal frictionless surface. She throws a 22.5 g knife at the target with a speed of 38.0 m/s. The target is stopped by the impact and the knife passes through the target. Determine the speed of the knife (in m/s) after passing through the target.

A bucket that has a mass of 30 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 25 meter tall building. You have a rope that has a mass of 0.1 kg/m that must be secured to the bucket. It takes 1 meter of rope to secure the bucket. Once the bucket reaches the top of the building it only has mass 24 kg because there was a hole in the bottom and sand was leaking out at a constant rate while it was being lifted to the top of the building.Find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building.
