a.

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 91A

Speed of cannonball v=1.674×103m/s .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Moon’s mass m=7.3×1022kg

Radius of Moon r=1.738×106m

Formula used:

Velocity is given as,

  v=Gmr

Calculation:

The gravitational constant is,

  G=6.67×1011N-m2/kg2

Substitute the values to find the vlocity,

  v=6.67×1011×7.3×10221.738×106=1.674×103m/s

Conclusion:

Therefore, the speed of cannonball is 1.674×103m/s .

b.

To determine

Time taken by cannonball to return to cannon.

Answer to Problem 91A

Time taken by cannonball to return to cannon is T=6.77×103s .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Moon’s mass m=7.3×1022kg

Radius of Moon r=1.738×106m

Formula used:

The time period is given as,

  T=2πr3Gm

Calculation:

Substitute the given values, to find the time period T .

  T=2×3.14×(1.738×106)36.67×1011×7.3×1022=6.77×103s

Conclusion:

Therefore, time taken by ball is 6.77×103s .
