You are on an interstellar mission from the E
arth to the 8.7 light-years distant star Sirius.
Your spaceship can travel with 70% the spee
d of light and has a cylindrical shape with a
diameter of 6 m at the front surface and a le
ngth of 25 m. You have to cross the interstel
lar medium with an approximated density of
1 hydrogen atom/m3.
(a) Calculate the time it takes your spaceshi
p to reach Sirius.
(b) Determine the mass of interstellar gas th
at collides with your spaceship during the mi
ssion.
Need help with this problem, I just posted on here a few minutes ago and the answer I got was wrong but I couldn't comment or anything to the person who answered it. Please read carefully and answer in the right form, the way it was asked for all three parts with work.
Please solve this in the most detailed way (for study purposes). Thank you!
