Estimate the kinetic energy of the Mars with respect to the Sun as the sum of the terms, that due to its daily rotation about its axis, and that due to its yearly revolution about the Sun. [Assume the Mars is a uniform sphere with mass = 6.4×1023 kg , radius = 3.4×106 m , rotation period 24.7 h , orbital period 686 d and is 2.3×108 km from the Sun.]
An uncrewed mission to the nearest star, Proxima Centauri, is launched from the Earth's surface as a projectile with an initial speed of 43.1 km/s, just enough for the spacecraft to escape the Earth's gravity and leave the solar system. Ignoring air resistance and the Earth's rotation, what is the speed of the spacecraft when it is more than halfway to the star? Assume we are ignoring the effect of the Sun on the spacecraft.

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
