Textbook Question

Chapter 10, Problem 71AP

A student makes a homemade resistor from a graphite pencil 5.00 cm long, where the graphite is 0.05 mm indiameter. The resistivity of the graphite is ρ = 1.38 × 10 2 Ω / m . The homemade resistor is place inseries with a switch, a 10.00-mF capacitor and a 0.50-V power source, (a) What is the BC time constant of the circuit? (b) What is the potential drop across the pencil 1.00 s after the switch is closed?

13.87 ... Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet. (a) For a flight from earth to Mars, in what direction must the rockets be fired at the earth and at Mars: in the direction of motion, or opposite the direction of motion? What about for a flight from Mars to the earth? (b) How long does a one- way trip from the the earth to Mars take, between the firings of the rockets? (c) To reach Mars from the…
