The Oort Cloud extends out to (possibly) one light-year from the sun. Objects in the Oort Cloud are still gravitationally bound to the sun. Suppose one such iceball orbits the sun in a circle. I'm going to alter some numbers, such as the mass of the sun and even G. The gravitational force is directed toward the sun and has the following magnitude: Calculate the force on the object if these are the numbers: G = 6.1*10-11 N*m2/kg2 M = 2.7*1030 kg m = 1.5*108 kg r = 19*1015 m Calculate your answer in microNewtons (10-6 N).
Black holes are difficult to observewith telescopes because they, bydefinition, don’t emit or reflect any light. They can be found by look-ing for other nearby objects orbit-ing them, however. Here is a dia-gram of a star in a circular orbit around a black hole. a. The period of the star’s orbit is 90 days, and its orbital radius around the black hole isobserved to be 3.6 : ×10^11 m. Find the orbital velocity of the star in units of m/s. (You need to convert 90 days to seconds, first). The circumference of a circle is 2πr. b. The mass of the star is known to be 4 × 10^30 kg. Find the centripetal acceleration of thestar and the strength of the gravitational force on the star. c. Find the mass of the black hole.

Consider a binary star system that has bright lines at 656.72 and 656.86 nm,56.46-nm hydrogen line in the rest frame, estimate the speed V of the center of mass of the binary system is 151km/s how do I determine the mass of each star, they orbit in a circular motion.
The Schwarzschild radius is a distance from a black hole where the escape velocity equals the speed of light (even light cannot escape from a black hole). Determine the Schwarzschild radius for a black hole with the mass of the Sun.
8.) The Martian moon Deimos has an almost perfectly circular orbit, completed once every 30.3 hours at a speed of 1.35 km/s. What is the radius of its orbit? The radius of Mars is 3.39 x 106 m. What is its escape velocity? To what radius would Mars have to collapse to become a black hole?
3. a. Calculate the escape velocity of an object leaving a black hole with mass equal to 20 times the Sun's mass at a distance equal to the Earth's orbit (r = 1.5x 10¹¹ m) away from the singularity (the location of the black hole's center). Express your answer as a fraction of the speed of light c. Even though black holes have all of their mass concentrated at a single point in spacetime (called the singularity), the size of a black hole is often described using a distance called the Schwarzschild radius. This distance, r, is the distance at which the escape velocity is equal to the speed of light, c. Once an object or a light beam gets closer to the black hole singularity than the Schwarzchild radius, it cannot escape, because nothing can travel faster than c. b. Find the Schwarzchild radius of the 20 solar mass black hole.

A spacecraft in the shape of a long cylinder has a length of 100 m, and its mass with occupants is 1 000 kg. It has strayed too close to a black hole having a mass 100 times that of the Sun (as shown). The nose of the spacecraft points toward the black hole, and the distance between the nose and the center of the black hole is 10.0 km. (a) Determine the total force on the spacecraft. (b) What is the difference in the gravitational fields acting on the occupants in the nose of the ship and on those in the rear of the ship, farthest from the black hole? (This difference in accelerations grows rapidly as the ship approaches the black hole. It puts the body of the ship under extreme tension and eventually tears it apart.)
