Using the GUFSA Template. Round off your final answer to the nearest hundredths. As we already know, rockets travel at very high speeds. How much time will it take a rocket (in seconds) to reach the moon if the moon is 238,900 miles away from the Earth, and the rocket is travelling 1,800,000 centimeters per minute? (express your answer in meters per second)
If you could visit another planetary system while the planets are forming, would you expect to see the condensation sequence at work, or do you think that process was most likely unique to our Solar System? How do the properties of the extrasolar planets discovered so far affect your answer?
Since 1995, hundreds of extrasolar planets have been discovered. There is the exciting possibility that there is life on one or more of these planets. To support life similar to that on the Earth, the planet must have liquid water. For an Earth-like planet orbiting a star like the Sun, this requirement means that the planet must be within a habitable zone of 0.9 AU to 1.4 AU from the star. The semimajor axis of an extrasolar planet is inferred from its period. What range in periods corresponds to the habitable zone for an Earth-like Planet orbiting a Sun-like star?
