A team of astronauts is on a mission to land on and explore a large asteroid. In addition to collecting samples and performing
experiments, one of their tasks is to demonstrate the concept of the escape speed by throwing rocks straight up at various
initial speeds. With what minimum initial speed vesc will the rocks need to be thrown in order for them never to "fall" back to
the asteroid? Assume that the asteroid is approximately spherical, with an average density p
3.06 x 106 g/m³ and volume
V = 3.32 x 1012 m³. Recall that the universal gravitational constant is G :
6.67 x 10-11 N-m²/kg².
A proton (mass 1.7x10-27 kg) interacts electrically with a neutral HCI molecule located at the
origin. At a certain time, t, the proton's position is (1.6×10⁹,0,0) m and the proton's velocity is
(3600,600,0) m/s The force exerted on the proton by the HCI molecule is (1.12x10-¹1,0,0) N.
At a time, t+ 4.4×10-14 s, what is the approximate velocity of the proton? (You may assume
that the force was approximately constant during this interval.)
