Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 surveyed the surface of Jupiter’s moon Io and photographed active volcanoes spewing liquid sulfur to heights of 70 km above the surface of this moon. Find the speed with which the liquid sulfur left the volcano. Io’s mass is 8.9 × 1022 kg, and its radius is 1 820 km.
Jupiter's moon Io has active volcanoes (in fact, it is the most volcanically active body in the solar system) that eject material as high as 500 kmkm (or even higher) above the surface. Io has a mass of 8.93×10^22kg and a radius of 1821 km.
How high would this material go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on Io? (RE = 6370 km, m_E=5.96×10^24kg)

- Since 1995, hundreds of extrasolar planets have been discovered. There is the exciting possibility that there is life on one or more of these planets. To support life similar to that on the Earth, the planet must have liquid water. For an Earth-like planet orbiting a star like the Sun, this requirement means that the planet must be within a habitable zone of 0.9 AU to 1.4 AU from the star. The semimajor axis of an extrasolar planet is inferred from its period. What range in periods corresponds to the habitable zone for an Earth-like Planet orbiting a Sun-like star?arrow_forwardRick is an Aerospace Engineer at NASA’s Jet Propulsions Laboratory (JPL), and is designing the next mission to Pluto called “New Horizons 2: The Sequel". This time Rick plans to study Pluto's largest moon Charon. Charon has a mass of 1.586 ×1021 kg and a mean radius of 606 km, and might have a nitrogenous atmosphere (N2) just like Pluto. If, for a massive object to have an atmosphere its escape speed must be 12 times greater than the root-mean- square (rms) velocity of the gas (otherwise the gas will slowly leak away over time), what is the maximum temperature that Charon can have and still have a nitrogenous atmosphere? [Charon has a temperature of -281 °C = 55 K, day or night.]arrow_forwardWhat is the escape velocity in km/s from Jupiter's exosphere, which begins about 995 km above the surface?

The orbit was just 1/9 the distance of Mercury from our sun, and it takes the planet only 3.09 days to make one orbit (assumed to be circular). (a) What is the mass of the star?

(b) How fast (in km>s) is this planet moving?arrow_forwardThe estimated mass and radius of Planet X are used to calculate the minimum escape speed, Ve, for an object launched from the surface of the planet. If the actual mass and/or radius of the planet are slightly different from the estimated values, how will the actual escape speed Va for the surface of Planet X compare to Ve ? v_a v_c if the actual mass is less and the actual radius is greater than their estimated values. v_a > v_c if the actual mass is greater and the actual radius is less than their estimated values. v_a = v_c regardless of any difference in mass or radius. v_a < v_c if the actual mass is greater and the actual radius is the same as their estimated values.arrow_forward

Palomar telescope, you discover a large planetary object orbited by a single moon. The moon orbits the planet every 7.35 hours with the centers of the two objects separated by a distance roughly 2.25 times the radius of the planet. Fellow scientists speculate that the planet is made of mostly iron. In fact, the media has dubbed it the ''Iron Planet'' and NASA has even named it Planet Hephaestus after the Greek god of iron. But you have your doubts. Assuming the planet is spherical and the orbit circular, calculate the density of Planet Hephaestus.arrow_forward
