An asteroid closely passes the Earth at a range of 17200mi and a relative speed of 7.8km/s.The diameter is estimated at 30mwith a specific gravity of 3. If this asteroid had impacted Earth, how much energy would have been released? Express this quantity in units of mega-tons (M ton) where a megaton is the energy released by one million metric tons of TNT explosive. A metric ton is 1000kgand the explosive energy density of TNT is 4184J/g.Hint: If the asteroid hits the Earth, its relative velocity becomes zero. Ignore any change in asteroid velocity due to gravitational acceleration or air resistance.
The Sun's mass is 2.0x1030 kg, its radius is 7.0×105 km, and it has a rotational period of approximately 28 days. If the Sun should collapse into a white dwarf of
radius 3.7x103 km, what would its period be if no mass were ejected and a sphere of uniform density can model the Sun both before and after?
Suppose the Sun contracts (collapses) to a pulsar with radius 15 km. Estimate the period of rotation of the pulsar. The period of revolution of the Sun about its axis is 25.38 days (1 day = 24 hours). Compare the kinetic energies of rotation of the pulsar and of the Sun.

- Using planetary motion, prove that the planet always being bound to the attracting solar center and never escapes from it. (explain with equation)arrow_forwardWe know that we can use Kepler's Laws to determine the orbits objects around one another. We also have learned that most stars orbit at least one other star (two stars orbiting each other is called a binary system). With this in mind, let's figure out the total mass of both stars of a binary system. Observing the spectra of the two stars orbiting one another, we determine the orbital period of this set of example stars around the system's center of mass to be 0.25 years (1/4 of a year) and the separation of the two stars to be 0.75 AU (3/4 of an AU). With this information, what is the sum of the mass of these two example stars orbiting each other?arrow_forwardAs6arrow_forward
