- Suppose a star the size of our Sun, but with mass 5.0 times as great, were rotating at a speed of 1.0 revolution every 10 days. If it were to undergo gravitational collapse to a neutron star of radius 14 km, losing three-quarters of its mass in the process, what would its rotation speed be? Assume also that the thrown- off mass carries off either. a) no angular momentum b) its proportional share three-quarters of the initial angular momentumarrow_forwardA planet is at a position of r→=3.0×10^12mx̂ − 4.0×10^12mŷ as it moves in an elliptical orbit around a large star at the origin (x=0, y=0).

Small probes of mass 7618 kg are periodically launched in pairs from two points on the rod-shaped part of the station as shown, launching at a speed of 3581 m/s with respect to the launch points, which are each located 296 m from the center of the rod. After 17 pairs of probes have launched, how fast will the station be spinning? 2.35 rpm 6.10 rpm 1.88 rpm 4.69 rpmarrow_forward

(A) Determine the speed of the satellite in terms of G, h, RE (the radius of the Earth), and ME (the mass of the Earth).arrow_forwardConsider a spacecraft in an elliptical orbit around the earth. At the low point, or perigee, of its orbit, it is 300 km above the earth's surface; at the high point, or apogee, it is 4500 km above the earth's surface. What is the period of the spacecraft's orbit? Using conservation of angular momentum, find the ratio of the spacecraft's speed at perigee to its speed at apogee. Using conservation of energy, find the speed at perigee and the speed at apogee. It is necessary to have the spacecraft escape from the earth completely. If the spacecraft's rockets are fired at perigee, by how much would the speed have to be increased to achieve this? What if the rockets were fired at apogee?arrow_forward
- Assume the earth is a uniform sphere of mass M and radius R. As strange as it may sound, if one can dig a long tunnel from one side of the Earth straight through the center and exit the other end, any object falling into the tunnel will appear at the other end (i.e. the opposite side of the Earth) in just 2530 s (42.2 min). Call that time t. Let t be a function of G, M, and R, where G = 6.67 x 10^-11 m3 kg−1 s−2 is the Universal Gravitational Constant, M = 5.98 x 10^24 kg, and R = 6400 km.
