Find the Hohmann transfer velocities, vEllipseEarth and vEllipseMars ,needed for a trip to Mars. Use Equation 13.7 to find the circular orbital velocities for Earth and Mars. Using Equation 13.4 and the total energy of the ellips (with semi-major asix a), given by E=GmMs2a , find the velocities at Earth (perihelion) and at Mars (aphelion) required to be on the transfer ellipse. The difference, v , at each point is the velocity boost or transfer velocity needed.
Check Your Understanding Consider the density required to make Earth a black hole compared to that required for the Sun. What conclusion can you draw from this comparison abut what would be required to create a black hole? Would you expect the Universe to have many black holes with small mass?
(a) What is the approximate force of gravity on a 70kg person due to the Andromeda galaxy, assuming its total mass is 1013 than of our Sun and acts like a single mass 2 Mly away? (b) What is the ratio of this force to the person's weight? Note that Andromeda is the closest large galaxy.
The Sun’s mass is 2.01030kg , its radius is 7.0105km , and it has a rotational period of approximately 28 days. If the Sun should collapse into a white dwarf of radius 3.5103km , what would its period be if no mass were ejected and a sphere of uniform density can model the Sun both before and after?
Compute directly the gravitational force on a unit mass at a point exterior to a homogeneous sphere of matter.
Check Your Understanding There is another consideration to this last calculation of ME. We derived Equation 13.8 assuming that the satellite orbits around the center of the astronomical body at the same radius used in the expression for the gravitational force between them. What assumption is made to justify this? Earth is about 81 times more massive than the Moon. Does the Moon orbit about the exact center of Earth? Which is about 17,000 mph. Using Equation 13.8, the period is T=2r3GME=2( 6.37 10 6+4.00 10 5m)3(6.67 10 11N m 2 /kg 2)(5.96 10 24kg)=5.55103s
Check Your Understanding Suppose that Balto in Example 2.10 leaves the game to attend to more important matter, but Astro Clifford and Dug continue playing. Astro and Clifford’s pull on the toy does not change, but Dug rims around and bites on the toy in a different place. With how big a force and in what direction must Dug pull on the toy now to balance out the combined pulls from Clifford and Astro? Illustrate this situation by drawing a vector diagram indicating all forces involved.
I0 orbits Jupiter with an average radius of 421,700 km and a period of 1.769 days. Based upon these data, what is tha mass of Jupiter?
A Molniya orbit is a highly eccentric orbit of a communication satellite so as to provide continuous communications coverage for Scandinavian countries and adjacent Russia. The orbit is positioned so that these countries have the satellite in view for extended periods in time (see below). If a satellite in such an orbit has an apogee at 40,000.0 km as measured from the center of Earth and a velocity of 3.0 km/s, what would be its velocity at perigee measured at 200.0 km altitude?
On a planet whose radius is 1.2107m , the acceleration due to gravity is 18m/s2 . What is the mass of the planet?
Assuming a circular orbit for the Sun about the center of the Milky Way galaxy, calculate its orbital Speed using the following information: The mass of the galaxy is equivalent to a single mass times that at the Sun (or located 30,000 ly away.
