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.
(a) From dimensional analysis alone find the expression for t, up to a numerical constant c.(b) Determine the value of c by using the above values in the expression found in part (a).
One model for a certain planet has a core of radius R and mass M surrounded by an outer shell of inner radius R, outer radius 2R, and mass 4M. If M= 4.1 * 1024 kg and R = 6.0 *106 m, what is the gravitational acceleration of a particle at points (a) R and (b) 3R from the center of the planet?
Two identical uniform spheres A and B, with mass M=M= 1.00 [kg], are placed 0.500 [m] away from another spherical mass C with mass m=m= 0.300 [kg] as shown:
If mass C is released from rest, what is its net acceleration? Assume that only the gravitational forces from spheres A and B act on C. State also the direction if it is upward or downward.
