Do you think the government should spend money to find near- Earth asteroids? How serious is the risk?
An asteroid is in a highly eccentric elliptical orbit around the Sun. The period of the asteroids orbit is 90 days. Which of the following statements is true about the possibility of a collision between this asteroid and the Earth? (a) There is no possible danger of a collision (b) There is a possibility of a collision. (c) There is not enough information to determine whether there is a danger of a collision.
(a) One of the moons of Jupiter, named Io, has an orbital radius of 4.22 108 m and a period of 1.77 days. Assuming the orbit is circular, calculate the mass of Jupiter, (b) The largest moon of Jupiter, named Ganymede, has an orbital radius of 1.07 109 m and a period of 7.16 days. Calculate the mass of Jupiter from this data, (c) Are your results to parts (a) and (b) consistent? Explain.
In January 2006 astronomers reported the discovery of a planet, comparable in size to the earth, orbiting another star and having a mass about 5.5 times the earth’s mass. It is believed to consist of a mixture of rock and ice, similar to Neptune. If this planet has the same density as Neptune 11.76 g>cm32, what is its radius expressed (a) in kilometers and (b) as a multiple of earth’s radius?
What evidence indicates that some asteroids have differentiated?
How can Jupiter have a liquid interior and not have a definite liquid surface?
An asteroid closely passes the Earth at a range of 17200 mi and relative speed of 7.8 km/s. The diameter is estimated at 30 m with a specific gravity of 3. If this asteroid had impacted Earth, how much energy would have been released? Express this quantity in units of mega- tons (Mton) where a megaton is the energy released by one million metric tons of TNT explosive. A metric ton is 1000 kg and the explosive energy density of TNT is 4184 J/g. Hint: If the asteroid hits the Earth, its relative velocity becomes zero. Ignore any change in asteroid velocity due to gravitational acceleration or air resistance.
