Neptune orbits the Sun with an orbital radius of 4.495 x 10^12 m. If the earth to sun distance 1A.U. = 1.5 x 10^11 m, a) Determine how many A.U.'s is Neptune's orbital radius (Round to the nearest tenth). b) Given the Sun's mass is 1.99 x10^30 kg, use Newton's modified version of Kepler's formula T^2 = (4pi^2/Gm(star)) x d^3 to find the period in seconds using scientific notation. (Round to the nearest thousandth). C) Convert the period in part b) to years (Round to the nearest tenth)

The radius of the Earth's orbit is 1.50 x 1011 m and that of Pluto is 5.93 x 1012 m. The star that this planet orbits is identical to our Sun. What is the orbital period of this planet? years eBook

4 Hello, I have questions about the physics, can you please help me with your diagram and explanation? I am highly appreciate it and thank you very much! In 1843, a comet passed extremely close to the sun, mass Ms: its distance from the perihelion was d = 6.1*10^3 * a0, where a0 is the radius of the Earth's orbit. Accurate measurements showed that the eccentricity of the comet was e=1-x with x = 9.4*10^-5. Given u = 30 km/s is the speed of revolution of the Earth around the Sun. (a) Express the product GMs as a function of u and a0. (b) Considering that the trajectory of the comet is quasi-parabolic, calculate its speed of passage vp at the perihelion. (c) Deduce the speed Va of transition to aphelion as a function of Vp and x. Do the digital application. (d) In what year will this comet return to the solar system?

According to Lunar Laser Ranging experiments the average distance LM from the Earth to the Moon is approximately 3.85 × 10° km. The Moon orbits the Earth and completes one revolution in approximately 27.5 days (a sidereal month). How can the mass of the Earth be calculated using the information above? Select the correct statements. Select one or more: O a. Use Newton's third law. O b. Use Newton's first law. c. Use Coulombs law. O d. Use Newton's second law.

Leave the moon's amplitude (semi-major axis) constant. How does the changing of the moon's orbital period change the calculated value of the planet's mass? a. Increasing the orbital period results in a higher calculated value for the mass of the planet. Decreasing the orbital period results in a lower calculated value for the mass of the planet. b. Increasing the orbital period results in a lower calculated value for the mass of the planet. Decreasing the orbital period results in a higher calculated value for the mass of the planet. c. Increasing the orbital period results in a higher calculates value for the mass of the planet. Decreasing the orbital period results in a higher calculated value for the mass of the planet.

Describe your approach to the calculation of the period of a satellite moving in the gravitational field of a planet with mass M. a. Use Newton's 3rd law. b. Use Newton's law of universal gravitation. c. Use Kepler's 3rd law. d. Use Newton's 2nd law. e. Use Newton's 1st law
