- Hunting a black hole. Observations of the light from a certain star indicate that it is part of a binary (two-star) system. This visible star has moves in a circle of radius r1 and has orbital period T. Variations in the brightness of nearby stars suggest that the unseen companion moves in a circle of radius r2 (see the figure). Find the approximate masses (a) m1 of the visible star and (b) m2 of the dark star. Express your answer in terms of r1, r2, T, and G. I asked this question before and recieved an incorrect answer, so I'm asking again.1. Consider a mass m initially at rest at a large distance I from center of the earth (l>R the earth's radius). The mass m is released and falls toward the earth. (a) Calculate the speed of the mass as a function of its distance x from the center of the earth. (b) In the approximation that l>>R, how much time does it take for the mass m to reach the earth? Express your answers in terms of R, 1, g (acceleration at the earth's surface) and (for part a) x.Two stars interact with each other. Star 1 has a mass 2×10^30 kg, and Star 2 has a mass 1×10^30kg. At a certain instant ( t=0), Star 1 is at the origin with zero velocity, and Star 2 is at ⟨-1.50×10^11,0,0⟩ m with a velocity ⟨0,-3.50×10^4,0⟩ m/s. Later, at t=5×10^6 seconds, Star 1 has a velocity ⟨-1.19×104,-8.26×103,0⟩ m/s. Define the system as Star 1 and Star 2. It is an isolated system, far from other stars. What is the momentum of the system at t=0.
- Consider the observation that the acceleration due to the gravitational force acting on a mass around a host planet decreases with the square of the separation between the objects. We can ask ourselves: why is it still accurate to consider a gravitational acceleration value of 9.8\frac{m}{s^2}9.8s2m for all of our projectile motion problems and all of our gravitational potential energy from prior modules? Let's analyze a situation and justify this analysis method: consider an object being launched from ground level to an altitude of 10,000 meters, roughly the cruising altitude of most jet liners, and far above our everyday experiences on Earth's surface. Compare the gravitational acceleration of the object at Earth's surface (the radius of Earth is about r_E=6.37\times10^6mrE=6.37×106m) to the acceleration value at the 10,000 meter altitude by determining the following ratio: g10,000m/gsurfaceAt a particular instant, in a coordinate frame chosen by us, the Earth (mass = 6 x 1024 kg) is at location (-7.30 × 106, -7.80 × 106, 3.73 × 106) m and the Moon (mass = 7 x 10²² kg) is at location (-1.35 × 108, -2.50 × 10³, 2.82 × 108) m. A satellite with mass 5000 kg is at location (-1.18 × 10³, -2.73 × 10³, 3.10 × 108) m. What is the net force on the satellite? Assume that the gravitional force of the Sun is negligible. net = i i !)NSuppose we are given the values for the two masses and their initial velocities along with the final velocity of B as follows: ??=1.2;??,??=5.7???=2.7; ??,??=2.3??????,??=4.1?

The net gravitational force acting on particle A due to particles B and C is 2.02 x 10-¹4 N at an angle of -163.8��. from the positive x axis. What are (a) the x coordinate and (b) the y coordinate of particle C? B dAB 0 A5) Two neutron stars are separated by a distance of 2.98x10^(10)m. Both have a mass of 3.17x10^(30)kg and a radius of 253000m. They are initially at relative rest. a) What is the speed of both when the distance between them is half the initial value? in m/s b) What is the speed of both when they are about to collide? in m/sA binary-star system contains a visible star and a black hole moving around their center of mass in circular orbits with radii r1 and r2 , respectively. The visible star has an orbital speed of v=5.36x105 ms-1 and a mass of m1 =5Ms ,where Ms= 1.98x1030kg is the mass of our Sun. Moreover, the orbital period of the visible star is T = 30 hours.(a) What is the radius r1 of the orbit of the visible star?(b) Calculate the mass m2 of the black hole in terms of MS . [Hint: One root of the equation x3 = 20a(5a+x)2 , where a is a constant, is x = 28a .]
- The radius of Venus (from the center to just above the atmosphere) is 6050 km (6050x103 m), and its mass is 4.9x1024 kg. An object is launched straight up from just above the atmosphere of Venus. (a) What initial speed is needed so that when the object is far from Venus its final speed is 3000 m/s? Vinitial = 10100 X m/s (b) What initial speed is needed so that when the object is far from Venus its final speed is 0 m/s? (This is called the "escape speed.") Vescape = m/sA skier starts from rest and slides down a slope of length L = 1080 m and angle a = 12° relative to the ground which is latitude line of λ = 57° relative to the equator. W X 2 N X L Z α Find the deflection (in meters, including sign) of the skier when it reaches the bottom of the track due to Coriolis force. Note: 1. Assume that the gravitational force is directed into the center of the Earth and it includes the centrifugal force. 2. Think about the trajectory of the skier without the effect of Coriolis force, and from there find the effect of Coriolis on the acceleration. The acceleration is time dependent and from there you can find the deflection. 3. The deflection is very small, so be very accurate with your calculation.
