Textbook Question

Chapter 13.2, Problem 13.112P

Show that the values v_A and v_P of the speed of an earth satellite at the apogee A and the perigee P of an elliptic orbit are defined by the relations

v A 2 = ( 2 G M r A + r P r P r A ) v P 2 = 2 G M r A + r P r A r P

where M is the mass of the earth, and r_A and r_P represent, respectively, the maximum and minimum distances of the orbit to the center of the earth.

! Required information Channel AB is fixed in space, and its centerline lies in the xy plane. The plane containing edges AC and AD of the channel is parallel to the xz plane. The surfaces of the channel are frictionless and the sphere E has 1.6 kg mass. NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. N J N D 30° + E 30° X F A 30° 20° B Determine the force supported by cord EF, and the reactions RC and Rp between the sphere and sides C and D, respectively, of the channel. (Round the final answers to four decimal places.) The force supported by cord EF is N. The reactions Rcand Rp between the sphere and sides C and D, respectively, of the channel are as follows: RC= RD= Z

Collision at an Angle To apply conservation of linear momentum in an inelastic collision. Two cars, both of mass m, collide and stick together. Prior to the collision, one car had been traveling north at a speed 2v, while the second was traveling in a southeastern direction at an angle ϕ with respect to the east-west direction and at a speed v. After the collision, the two-car system travels in a northeastern direction at an angle θ with respect to the north-south direction and at a speed v final. Find v final, the speed of the joined cars after the collision. Express your answer in terms of v and ϕ.

After the collision, the two-car system travels in a northeastern direction at an angle θ with respect to the north-south direction and at a speed v final. What is the angle θ (with respect to north) made by the velocity vector of the two cars after the collision? Express your answer in terms of ϕ. Your answer should contain an inverse trigonometric function.
