PHY 183 Individual Exam #1 Fall 2023 1. NASA has placed a satellite in orbit about Europa (one of Jupiter’s many moons). The purpose of the satellite is to study the atmospheric conditions on Europa. The code below models the motion of the satellite as it undergoes uniform circular motion around Europa. Assume the base units used in the code are kilograms, meters, and seconds. (a) (10 points) What are the satellite’s initial position and momentum? r = p =
PHY 183 Individual Exam #1 Fall 2023 (b) (6 points) Calculate the net force acting on the satellite at the end of the first time the loop has been executed. (The same code is included above for ease of reference.) F net =
PHY 183 Individual Exam #1 Fall 2023 (c) (5 points) At what time does the script stop running? (The same code is included above for ease of reference.) t = (d) (4 points) List two assumptions necessary for the motion, as modeled by the given code.
PHY 183 Individual Exam #1 Fall 2023 2. In the blockbuster hit of the summer, “Barbie” the movie, Margot Robbie as Barbie floats from the top of her dream house into her pink Corvette, because when you play with Barbie, why would she use the stairs? To achieve this effect, Robbie was hooked up to a harness and cables as shown in the image above. For reference, Margot Robbie has a mass of 56 kg. (a) (5 points) Given the diameter of the circular harness cable as .030 m, what is the cross-sectional area of the cable? Area = (b) (8 points) Using the solution from part (a), a bond length of 2 . 50 × 10 10 m, and interatomic spring stiffness of 1 . 02 × 10 2 N/m, a relaxed length of the cable of 8.5 m, and that there are 3 . 3 × 10 10 bonds in a chain, calculate the macroscopic stiffness of the wire. k s,wire =
PHY 183 Individual Exam #1 Fall 2023 (c) (7 points) If the dreamhouse is 9.0 m tall and Robbie walks off the roof for the stunt, where at the ground the cable is stretched to the full height of the dreamhouse(i.e. the total length of the stretched cable is 9m), what is the magnitude of the force of the spring exerted on Robbie? Model Robbie as a point mass. | F spring on Robbie | = (d) (5 points) Continuing from part c, what is the magnitude of the force Robbie ex- erted on the spring? | F Robbie on spring | =
