on december 25, 2004, during a NASA mission to Saturn, the spacecraft Cassini released a probe named Huygens, which landed on the Saturnian moon titan on January 14, 2005. huygens was released from the main spacecraft at a gentle relative speed of 31 cm/s. As Huygens moved away, it rotated at a rate of 7 revolutions per minute.(a) How many revolutions had huygens completed when it was 150m from Cassini?

An undiscovered planet, many lightyears from Earth, has one moon in a periodic orbit. This moon takes 2010 × 103 seconds (about 23 days) on average to complete one nearly circular revolution around the unnamed planet. If the distance from the center of the moon to the surface of the planet is 235.0 × 106 m and the planet has a radius of 3.30 × 106 m, calculate the moon's radial acceleration ?c .

A Bluray disc is 12 cm in diameter. When put into a player, it takes 30 seconds for the disc toaccelerate to its playing speed of 1500 revolutions per minute. After this time, it spins at a constantangular velocity. Explain why you did everything you did.a) Find the distance traveled by a point on the edge of the disc during the time it takes to reachits playing speed. b) Make plots of θ, ω and α for the first 60 seconds after the disc is put in the player. (Note thisis longer than the 30 seconds of acceleration.) You may assume it spins counterclockwise
In 1993 the spacecraft Galileo sent home an image of asteroid 243 Ida and a tiny orbiting moon (now known as Dactyl), the first confirmed example of an asteroid–moon system. In the image, the moon, which is 1.5 km wide, is 100 km from the center of the asteroid, which is 55 km long. The shape of the moon's orbit is not well known; assume it is circular with a period of 27 h. (a) What is the mass of the asteroid? (b) The volume of the asteroid, measured from the Galileo images, is 14100 km3. What is the density (mass per unit volume) of the asteroid?
