Textbook Question

Chapter 9, Problem 14CQ

Compare the magnitude of Earth's rotational momentum about its axis to that of the Moon about Earth. The tides exert a torque on Earth and the Moon so that eventually they will rotate with the same period. The object with the greater rotational momentum will experience the smaller percent change in the period of rotation will Earth's solar day increase more than the Moon’s period of rotation decreases? Explain.

13.87 ... Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet. (a) For a flight from earth to Mars, in what direction must the rockets be fired at the earth and at Mars: in the direction of motion, or opposite the direction of motion? What about for a flight from Mars to the earth? (b) How long does a one- way trip from the the earth to Mars take, between the firings of the rockets? (c) To reach Mars from the…
