Review. In 1963, astronaut Gordon Cooper orbited the Earth 22 times. The press stated that for each orbit, he aged two-millionths of a second less than he would have had he remained on the Earth. (a) Assuming Cooper was 160 km above the Earth in a circular orbit, determine the difference in elapsed time between someone on the Earth and the orbiting astronaut for the 22 orbits. You may use the approximation 11x=1+x2 for small x. (b) Did the press report accurate information? Explain.

Astronomical observatrions of our Milky Way galaxy indicate that it has a mass of about 8.01011 solar masses. A star orbiting on the galaxy’s periphery is about 6.0104 light-years from its center. (a) What should the orbital period of that star be? (b) If its period is 6.0107 years instead, what is the mass of the galaxy? Such calculations are used to imply the existence of other matter, such as a very massive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.

(a) What should the orbital period of that star be? (b) If its period is 6.0107 instead, what is the mass of the galaxy? Such calculations are used to imply the existence of "dark matter" in the universe and have indicated, for example, the existence of very massive black holes at the centers of some galaxies.
