An ion-engine-propelled spacecraft has mass 1000 kg without propellant. Its propellant tank is filled with 30 kg of compressed xenon. If the ion engine is operated on orbit at specific impulse 3000 s, what total AV (in m/s) is available for the mission? (Use 9.81 m/s? as Earth's sea-level gravity.) (m/s)

2. Some of the first power-generating wind turbines were small, having blades with a radius of 8.00 meters. Currently, the largest wind turbine has a radius of 164 meters. Because the small wind turbines are closer to the ground, they often experience smaller wind speeds. Given the information below, how many small wind turbines would be needed to produce the same power output as one large wind turbine? For both wind turbines, assume the air density is 1.23 kg m³. Small Wind Turbine Large Wind Turbine Wind turbine blade radius 8.00 m 164 m Wind turbine efficiency 35% 45% Wind speed 3.50 m s1 5.50 m s1
