Check Your Understanding What happens to force and accleration as the vehicles fall together? What wil our estimate of the velocity at a collision higher or lower than the speed actually be? And finally, what would happen if the masses were not identical? Would the force on each be the same or different? How about their accelerations?

Earth astronomers measure that two novas (sudden brightening of a star) occur simultaneously, one in the constellation Orion and the other in the constellation Lyra. Each is 2.5×103c·y from Earth, but in opposite directions. Observers in aspacecraft flying at 1000 km/h on a line from Orion to Lyra measure one nova to occurbefore the other. (a) Which nova occurs first? (b) How much time separates the twonovas? Assume Earth is an inertial reference frame.

The sun produces energy by nuclear fusion reactions, in which matter is converted into energy. By measuring the amount of energy we receive from the sun, we know that it is producing energy at a rate of 3.8 * 1026 W. (a) How many kilograms of matter does the sun lose each second? Approximately how many tons of matter is this (1 ton = 2000 lb)? (b) At this rate, how long would it take the sun to use up all its mass?
