For a rigid spherical moon the Roche limit is given by Eq. (6) in Box 2.1. (a) Using the planetary dimensions in Table 1.1, cal- culate the Roche limit for the Moon with respect to the Earth. Express the answer as a multiple of the Earth's radius.A)At what altitude would a geostationary sattelite need to be above the surface of Mars? Assume the mass of Mars is 6.39 x 1023 kg, the length of a martian solar day is 24 hours 39minutes 35seconds, the length of the sidereal day is 24hours 37minutes 22seconds, and the equatorial radius is 3396 km. The answer can be calculated using Newton's verison of Kepler's third law.
- A submersible robot is exploring one of the methane seas on Titan, Saturn's largest moon. It discovers a number of small spherical structures on the bottom of the sea at depth of 10 meters [m], and selects one for analysis. The sphere selected has a volume of 1.9 cubic centimeters [cm3] and a density of 2.25 grams per cubic centimeter [g/cm3]. When the rock is returned to Earth for analysis, what is the weight of the sphere in newtons [N]? Gravity on Titan is 1.352 meters per second squared [m/s2]. The density of methane is 0.712 grams per liter [g/L] The weight of the sphere is ____ N.You decide to go on an interstellar mission to explore some of the newly discovered extrasolar planets orbiting the star ROTOR.

- The figure shows, not to scale, a cross section through the interior of Earth. Rather than being uniform throughout, Earth is divided into three zones: an outer crust, a mantle, and an inner core. The dimensions of these zones and the masses contained within them are shown on the figure. Earth has a total mass of 5.98 x 1024 kg and a radius of 6370 km. Ignore rotation and assume that Earth is spherical. (a) Calculate ag at the surface. (b) Suppose that a bore hole (the Mohole) is driven to the crust-mantle interface at a depth of 25.0 km; what would be the value of ag at the bottom of the hole? (c) Suppose that Earth were a uniform sphere with the same total mass and size. What would be the value of ag at a depth of 25.0 km?
