Chapter 13, Problem 13.67AP
Studies of the relationship of the Sun to our galaxy—the Milky Way—have revealed that the Sun is located near the outer edge of the galactic disc, about 30 000 ly (1 ly = 9.46 × 1015 m) from the center. The Sun has an orbital speed of approximately 250 km/s around the galactic center. (a) What is the period of the Sun’s galactic motion? (b) What is the order of magnitude of the mass of the Milky Way galaxy? (c) Suppose the galaxy is made mostly of stars of which the Sun is typical. What is the order of magnitude of the number of stars in the Milky Way?

In a scene from The Avengers (the first one) Black Widow is boosted directly upwards by Captain America, where she then grabs on to a Chitauri speeder that is 15.0 feet above her and hangs on. She is in the air for 1.04 s. A) With what initial velocity was Black Widow launched? 1 m = 3.28 ft B) What was Black Widow’s velocity just before she grabbed the speeder? Assume upwards is the positive direction.
In Dark Souls 3 you can kill the Ancient Wyvern by dropping on its head from above it. Let’s say you jump off the ledge with an initial velocity of 3.86 mph and spend 1.72 s in the air before hitting the wyvern’s head. Assume the gravity is the same as that of Earth and upwards is the positive direction. Also, 1 mile = 1609 m. A) How high up is the the ledge you jumped from as measured from the wyvern’s head? B) What is your velocity when you hit the wyvern?
A) If Yoshi flings himself downwards at 9.76 miles per hour to hit an enemy 10.5 m below him, how fast is Yoshi traveling when he hits the enemy? 1 mile = 1609 m
