Chapter 22, Problem 2SOP
Saturn is about 60,000 km in radius, and its rings are only about 0.01 km thick with ripples 100 m high. Design a really big model with Saturn 60 inches in radius (10 ft in diameter). How thick must the rings be in your model and how high can the ripples be? A sheet of paper is about 0.004 inches thick.

- Car P moves to the west with constant speed v0 along a straight road. Car Q starts from rest at instant 1, and moves to the west with increasing speed. At instant 5, car Q has speed w0 relative to the road (w0 < v0). Instants 1-5 are separated by equal time intervals. At instant 3, cars P and Q are adjacent to one another (i.e., they have the same position). In the reference frame o f the road, at instant 3 i s the speed o f car Q greater than, less than, or equal to the speed of car P?
