A team of astronauts is on a mission to land on and explore a large asteroid. In addition to collecting samples and performing experiments, one of their tasks is to demonstrate the concept of the escape speed by throwing rocks straight up at various initial speeds. With what minimum initial speed vesc will the rocks need to be thrown in order for them never to "fall" back to the asteroid? Assume that the asteroid is approximately spherical, with an average density ? = 2.67 × 106 g/m3 and volume V =1.71 × 1012 m3. Recall that the universal gravitational constant is G = 6.67 × 10-11 (Nm2)/(kg2).
Apollo and Artemis are playing on the teeter‑totter in their school's playground. They both have approximately the same mass. They are sitting on either side of the teeter‑totter at about the same distance from the teeter‑totter's pivot point. The teeter‑totter is going up and down and they are having a great time! Mercury, the new kid in school, wanders by. Since they are very friendly kids, Apollo and Artemis ask Mercury to join them. Mercury joins Apollo on his side of the teeter‑totter and sits next to him. What should Artemis do in order to keep the fun going? 1)Move farther from the teeter‑totter's pivot point in order to balance out the new smaller torque provided by Mercury and Apollo. 2)Move closer to the teeter‑totter's pivot point in order to balance out the new larger torque provided by Mercury and Apollo. 3)Move farther from the teeter‑totter's pivot point in order to balance out the new larger torque provided by Mercury and Apollo. 4)Move closer to the…
On Oct 31 2015, massive asteroid TB145 nicknamed "Spooky" passed near the Earth vicinity. The measured diameter of the asteroid: 600meters, and its speed relative to the Sun: 30.5 km/s. (NOTE you are not given the parameters of collision, so they become important part of the "worst case -best case scenario.") Treat the asteroid as spherical object with the density of between 3g/cm³ to 4g/cm³. Treat an Earth's orbit around the Sun as a perfect circle of radius =150 x 106 km. Take one year to be 365.24days. Find the worst case scenario for the collision of such object with the Earth and find the Maximum energy released in the completely inelastic collision of this object with Earth. State your answers to the nearest mega-ton of TNT. (1 megaton of TNT= 4.184 X1015J). Your Answer: Answer
Two stars each of one solar mass (= 2×1030 kg) are approaching each other for a head on collision. When they are a distance 109 km, their speeds are negligible. What is the speed with which they collide ? The radius of each star is 104 km. Assume the stars to remain undistorted until they collide. (Use the known value of G)
An alpha particle (a two protons, two neutrons) moves into a stationary gold atom (Au = 79 protons, 118 neutrons), passing through the electron region that surrounds the gold nucleus like a shell and headed directly toward the nucleus (see below). The alpha particle slows until it momentarily stops when its center is at radial distance r from the nuclear center. Then it moves back along its incoming path. (Because the gold nucleus is much more massive than the alpha particle, we can assume the gold nucleus does not move.) What was the kinetic energy K; of the alpha particle when it was initially far away (hence external to the gold atom)? Assume that the only force acting between the alpha particle and the gold nucleus is the (electrostatic) Coulomb force and treat each as a single charged particle. 9.23 fm It was actually experiments like this, performed between 1908 and 1913 by Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden, under the direction of Ernest Rutherford at the Physical Laborato- ries of…
Zero, a hypothetical planet, has a mass of 5.0 * 102^3 kg, a radius of 3.0 * 10^6 m, and no atmosphere. A 10 kg space probe is to be launched vertically from its surface.

3. b. Consider a large massive spherical shell object. With all of its mass M is distributed at its radius R (shown in the figure). Draw a schematic graph of gravitational force and corresponding gravitational potential energy experienced by another object m at a distance r, where the distance varies as, r →0 tor→.

You’ve been given the challenge of balancing a uniform, rigid meter-stick with mass M = 110 g on a pivot. Stacked on the 0-cm end of the meter stick are n identical coins, each with mass m = 2.9 g, so that the center of mass of the coins is directly over the end of the meter stick. The pivot point will be measured from the 0-cm end of the meter stick. Determine the distance da in cm if there is na = 1 coin on the end of the meter stick, and the system is to remain in static equilibrium.
