You have a super high-tech spacecraft travelling through space that gets caught in a circular orbit around a mysterious object of mass 10 times that of the Sun and a radius of 30km. Your team decides to observe the behavior of this object but due to the heat that it's giving off, it is required that your satellite obtain a circular orbit of at least r = 5.3e5km to be considered 'safe'. You are currently in a circular orbit with r = 4.1e5km. What is the minimum delta-v required to reach the safe orbit
Problem 6: A meteoroid is moving towards a planet. It has mass m = 0.86x10° kg and speed v, = 1.1x10' m/s at distance R = 1.1x107 m from the center of the planet. The radius of the planet is R = 0.14x10' m. The mass of the planet is M = 3.2x1025 kg. There is no air around the planet. R
Geosynchronous satellite moves in a circular orbit around the Earth and completes one circle in the same time T during which the Earth completes one revolution around its own axis. The satellite has mass m and the Earth has mass M and radius R. In order to be geosynchronous, the satellite must be at a certain height h above the Earth’s surface. a) Derive an expression for h in terms of m, M, R, T and constants. b) Calculate the numerical value for h in meters.

A ring of radius 7 m lies in the x-y plane, centered on the origin. The portions of the ring in the first and third quadrants have a mass density of 7.4 kg/m, while the portions of the ring in the second and forth quadrants have a mass density of 7.3 kg/m. Find the z component of the gravitational field due to the ring at a point P on the z axis a distance 6 meters from the origin. Use G = 6.673E-11 N m2/kg2.
Tidal forces are gravitational forces exerted on different parts of a object by a second object. Their effects are particularly visible on Earth's surface in the form of tides. To understand the origin of tidal forces, consider Earth-Moon system to consist of two spherical bodies, each with a spherical mass distribution. Let RE be the radius of Earth, m be the mass of the Moon, and G be the gravitational constant. Part B Since the gravitational force between two bodies decreses with distance, the accelaeration a(near) experienced by a unit mass located at the point on the earth's surface closest to moon is slightly different from the acceleration a(far) experienced by a unit mass located at the point on the earth`s surface farthest from the moon. Give a general expresion for the quantity a(near)- a(far).
