Please prove the relationship between gravity and universal gravitation on Earth , and use the expression to explain in detail . (I've been obsessed with this problem all day, and I'm really sick.)
1. using Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation and some kinematics calculation we can calculate the mass of the planet. For this, use this equation below: ?planet =(9.340×1024)×(vmax)×(Pstar)1/3×(Mstar)2/3 Given: - vmax = 1.5 m/s - Pstar = 3.5 days - Mstar = 1.148 Msun, where Msun = 1.98847×1030 kg. This calculation is not shown.
Consider Figure 13.23 in Tidal Forces. This diagram represents the tidal forces for spring tides. Sketch a similar diagram for neap tides. (Hint: For simplicity, imagine that the Sun and the Moon contribute equally. Your diagram would be the vector sum of two force fields (as in Figure 13.23), reduced by a factor of two, and superimposed at right angles.)
Exoplanets in eccentric orbits experience large temperature swings during their orbits. Suppose you had to plan for a mission to such a planet. Based on Kepler’s second law, does the planet spend more time closer or farther from the star? Explain.
(a) What is the approximate force of gravity on a 70kg person due to the Andromeda galaxy, assuming its total mass is 1013 than of our Sun and acts like a single mass 2 Mly away? (b) What is the ratio of this force to the person's weight? Note that Andromeda is the closest large galaxy.
Kepler’s third law says that the orbital period (in years) is proportional to the square root of the cube of the mean distance (in AU) from the Sun (Pa1.5) . For mean distances from 0.1 to 32 AU, calculate and plot a curve showing the expected Keplerian period. For each planet in our solar system, look up the mean distance from the Sun in AU and the orbital period in years and overplot these data on the theoretical Keplerian curve.
What is a gravitational wave and why was it so hard to detect?
What would life be like if there was no gravity on Earth? Explain in detail at least three things that would be affected without gravity.
A day on Splorg lasts the equivalent of 31.7 hours. At the equator, Splorg has a circumference of 54,660 km. It takes a 2 kg mass exactly 0.56 s to fall a distance of 2 m at the surface of Splorg. At what radial distance would you need to orbit a satellite so that it always remained at the same location above the Splorigian equator (i.e. in splorgeosynchronous orbit)? At what velocity does the spacecraft need to reach in order for it to escape the gravity of Splorg.
Please answer the question and subquestions entirely. This is one single question. According to the official guideline, I can ask two subquestions! Thank you! 1) Two bodies, masses m 1 and m 2, attract each other with force F. If one of the masses is doubled, the new gravitational force will be: 2 F F/2 F/4 4 F a) The value of g at an altitude above Earth equal to one Earth diameter is: 9.8 m/s2 4.9 m/s2 2.5 m/s2 1.9 m/s2 1.1 m/s2 b) The escape velocity at the surface of Earth is 11 km/s. What is the escape velocity at the surface of a planet whose radius is 4 times and whose mass is 100 times that of Earth? 1.60 km/s 8 km/s 55 km/s 200 km/s none of the above
