- In 1999, NASA lost the Mars Climate Orbiter because one group of engineers used metric units in their calculations while another group used English units. Consequently, the orbiter descended too far into the Martian atmosphere and burned up. Suppose that the orbiter was to have established orbit at 157 km and that one group of engineers specified this distance as 1.57 x 10³ m. Suppose further that a second group of engineers programmed the orbiter to go to 1.57 x 10³ ft. The $125 million Mars Climate Orbiter was lost in the Martian atmosphere in 1999 because two groups of engineers failed to communicate with each other about What was the difference in kilometers between the two altitudes?

- Schwarzschild radius RS of a black hole is the maximum distance from the black hole’s center at which light cannot escape its gravitational field. The quantity RS (with dimensions of length) is dependent on the mass of the black hole M, the speed of light c, and the gravitational constant G. Based on the dimensions of these four parameters, predict an equation for the Schwarzschild radius. Hint: G has dimensions of [L3/MT2]arrow_forwardI have tried 16.7x10^3, 16.7x10^4, and 1.365x10^8 and those are all wrong for the first part. I know that the second part is 14.3 hr.
