What is the Schwarzschild radius for the black hole at the center of our galaxy if it has the mass of 4 million solar masses?
Two stars of masses M and m, separated by a distance d, revolve in circular orbits about their center of mass (Fig. P13.44). Show that each star has a period given by
Suppose a star the size of our Sun, but with mass 5.0 times as great, were rotating at a speed of 1.0 revolution every 10 days. If it were to undergo gravitational collapse to a neutron star of radius 14 km, losing three-quarters of its mass in the process, what would its rotation speed be? Assume also that the thrown- off mass carries off either. a) no angular momentum b) its proportional share three-quarters of the initial angular momentum
A uniform, spherical cloud of interstellar gas has mass 1.8×1030 kg and radius 1.2×1013 m, and is rotating with period 1.5×106 years. If the cloud collapses to form a star 7.4×108 m in radius, what will be the star's rotation period?
At 714 A.M. on June 30, 1908, a huge explosion occurred above remote central Siberia, at latitude 61 N and longitude 102 E; the fireball thus created was the brightest flash seen by anyone before nuclear weapons. The Tunguska Event, which according to one chance witness “covered an enormous part of the sky,” was probably the explosion of a stony asteroid about 140 m wide. (a) Considering only Earth’s rotation, determine how much later the asteroid would have had to arrive to put the explosion above Helsinki at longitude 25 E. This would have obliterated the city. (b) If the asteroid had, instead, been a metallic asteroid, it could have reached Earth’s surface. How much later would such an asteroid have had to arrive to put the impact in the Atlantic Ocean at longitude 20 W? (The resulting tsunamis would have wiped out coastal civilization on both sides of the Atlantic.)

In 2014, the Rosetta space probe reached the comet Churyumov– Gerasimenko. Although the comet’s core is actually far from spherical, in this problem we’ll model it as a sphere with a mass of 1.0 x 1013 kg and a radius of 1.6 km. If a rock were dropped from a height of 1.0 m above the comet’s surface, how long would it take to hit the surface?
During a supernova, the iron core of a supermassive star collapses into a neutron star. Let the mass of the collapsing core be (3×10^30kg), the initial radius is (6×10^6m), the final radius is (1×10^4m), and the initial rotation rate to be (1 rotation every 6 hours). [The moment of inertia of a sphere is 2/5M r^2. What is the final rotation rate of the neutron star?

A spacecraft is in an elliptical orbit around the earth. At th etime t = 0 hours, it is at its apogee (highest point), 1000 km above the earth's surface. It is at its perigee (lowest point), 100 km above the surface 50 minutes later. Assuming that distance from the earth varies sinusoidally with time, write an equation and find the first 3 positive values of t for which the spacecraft is 200 km from the surface.
