Textbook Question
Chapter 27, Problem 33P
An antimatter reactor. When a particle meets its antiparticle (more about this in Chapter 30), they annihilate each other and their mass is converted to light energy. The United States uses approximately 1.0 ×1020 J of energy per year, (a) If all this energy came from a futuristic antimatter reactor, how much mass would be consumed yearly? (b) If this antimatter fuel had the density of Fe (7.86 g/cm3) and were stacked in bricks to form a cubical pile, how high would it be? (Before you get your hopes up, antimatter reactors are a long way in the future—if they ever will be feasible.)

Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet. (a) For a flight from earth to Mars, in what direction must the rockets be fired at the earth and at Mars: in the direction of motion, or opposite the direction of motion? What about for a flight from Mars to the earth? (b) How long does a one- way trip from the the earth to Mars take, between the firings of the rockets? (c) To reach Mars from the…arrow_forward
