) Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation states that the force exerted between 2 objects, called a weight force, is given by F = G r2 m, and m2 are the masses of the two objects, and r is the distance between them. G is called the gravitational constant. In the study of orbital mechanics, we frequently are talking about smaller objects orbiting larger objects, and we're concerned with the force on the smaller object. As a result, we rewrite the equation, replacing Gm, with u (u = GM). um F = r2 Determine the dimensions of u in MLT.

1.22 In order to prevent frostbite to skiers on chair lifts, the weather report at most ski areas gives both an air temperature and the wind-chill temperature. The air temperature is measured with a thermometer that is not affected by the wind. However, the rate of heat loss from the skier increases with wind velocity, and the wind-chill temperature is the temperature that would result in the same rate of heat loss in still air as occurs at the measured air temperature with the existing wind. Suppose that the inner temperature of a 3-mm-thick layer of skin with a thermal conductivity of 0.35 W/m K is and the air temperature is . Under calm ambient conditions the heat transfer coefficient at the outer skin surface is about (see Table 1.4), but in a 40-mph wind it increases to . (a) If frostbite occurs when the skin temperature drops to about , do you advise the skier to wear a face mask? (b) What is the skin temperature drop due to the wind?
The drag on an airplane wing in flight is known to be a function of the density of air (), the viscosity of air(), the free-stream velocity (U), a characteristic dimension of the wing (s), and the shear stress on the surface of the wing (s). Show that the dimensionless drag, sU2, can be expressed as a function of the Reynolds number, Us.

The gravitational constant g is 9.807 m/s2 at sea level, but it decreases as you go up in elevation. A useful equation for this decrease in g is g = a – bz, where z is the elevation above sea level, a = 9.807 m/s2, and b = 3.32 × 10–6 1/s2. An astronaut “weighs” 80.0 kg at sea level. [Technically this means that his/her mass is 80.0 kg.] Calculate this person’s weight in N while floating around in the International Space Station (z = 354 km). If the Space Station were to suddenly stop in its orbit, what gravitational acceleration would the astronaut feel immediately after the satellite stopped moving? In light of your answer, explain why astronauts on the Space Station feel “weightless.”
the specific heat (cp or cv) can also be understood as a "capacity or ability of a given material to store "heat". In this way, we can say that: 1- the greater the specific heat, the greater the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material.2- the higher the specific heat, the lower the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material3- the lower the specific heat, the greater the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material4- the lower the specific heat, the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material does not change5-the higher the specific heat, the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material does not change choose only one of the above alternatives as correct
