Chapter 10, Problem 79P
To determine

ToShow: The Kepler’s second law follows directly from the law of conservation of angular momentum and the fact that the force of gravitational attraction between a planet and the Sun acts along the line joining the centers of the two celestial objects.

Earth is rotating about the Sun in our solar system. The distance between the Earth and Sun is 1.5 x 10'm. Consider the impact of an asteroid of mass 8.9 x1015 kg and a speed of 90,000 km/h with respect to the Earth's surface. The asteroid strikes the Earth at the equator as shown in Figure. Consider the mass and radius of thec Earth are ME 5.97 x 10 kg and R: = 6.38 x10° m, respectively. Assume that the axial and orbital axis of rotations are parallel to cach other. %3D Earth North Pole (d) How much encrgy is needed to stop the Earth's rotation about its axis after the collision? (e) What would be the moment of inertia of the Earth if the axis of rotation is parallelly shifted so that it touches the cquator?
A booster rocket on a satellite that is in a circular oribit around Earth fires suddenly, and it is found that the velocity of rocket has an outward radial velocity v in addition to its original velocity. Find (a) Calculate the new energy and angular momentum, and the ratio of new to old values. (b) Plot kinetic, potential and total energy of after the rocket burn as a function of time.
At what rate, in watts, is the Earth losing rotational kinetic energy due to tidal braking? [Hint:The rotational kinetic energy of the earth,Erot=0.5I⊕ω2, where ω= 2π/P is the rotational angular speed,Pbeing the Earth’s rotationalperiod. The moment of inertia of the Earth, I⊕=(2/5)M⊕R⊕2.]
