The Lunatik is a military spacecraft on extended patrol in the vicinity of the planet Eqrgp and its moon, with the mission of repelling Vegan invaders who threaten life on Eqrgp or on its moon. The Vegans' home base is on a planet of the star Vega. As it happens, Vegans are vegans, but still very vicious toward non-Vegan life forms, especially non-vegan ones. The captain of the Lunatik endangers his craft's vital mission by running out of fuel, leaving the Lunatik adrift in space, subject to the gravitational pulls of Eqrgp and its moon. Ignore the gravitational pulls of other bodies. The Lunatik's navigator notices that for a short while the craft does not change its speed or direction. How far from the center of Eqrgp is the Lunatik at that time? The distance between the centers of Eqrgp and its moon is 3.91 x 10 m. The mass of Egrqp is 5.03 x 1024 kg and the mass of its moon is 1.35 x 1023 kg. distance from the center of Eqrgp:

If we send astronauts to Mars, there will be a time delay anytime we send or receive messages to them here on Earth. Given that Mars is an average of 54.6 million km away from Earth, how long is this time delay for a 2-way 'round-trip' communication - sent to Earth, then back to Mars? (this might be important in emergency situations) answer choices a)About 4 minutes. b)About 30 seconds. c)About 10 seconds. d)About 6 minutes.
A rocket is fired ‘vertically’ from the surface of mars with a speed of 2 km s-1. If 20% of its initial energy is lost due to martian atmospheric resistance, how far will the rocket go from the surface of mars before returning to it ? Mass of mars = 6.4×1023 kg; radius of mars = 3395 km; G = 6.67×10-11 N m2 kg-2.

The energy yield of a nuclear weapon is often defined in terms of the equivalent mass of a conventional explosive. 1 ton of a conventional explosive releases 4.2 GJ. A typical nuclear warhead releases 250,000 times more, so the yield is expressed as 250 kilotons. That is a staggering explosion, but the asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs was significantly greater. Assume that the asteroid was a sphere 10 km in diameter, with a density of 2500 kg/m3 and moving at 30 km/s. What energy was released at impact, in joules and in kilotons?
