In 2085, your company wins a contract to deliver oxygen to several asteroid-based habitats from another asteroid with plenty of oxygen locked up in ice. Since there is no drag in space, the size of the oxygen containers is not an issue, and the most economical method turns out to be to enclose about 6 x 105 kilograms of cold but gaseous oxygen at about half atmospheric pressure in a Mylar sphere 100 m in diameter. To the sphere, you have strapped a small rocket engine. While the engine is firing, the engine presses into the sphere roughly 10 meters, like a finger pushing in on a balloon, as the sphere accelerates. The engine exerts a constant thrust until the sphere reaches its interasteroidal cruising speed of 100 m/s. The sphere travels about 5.0 km while the engine is firing. What fraction of the energy the rocket engine has given to the sphere ends up as internal energy in the gas just before the engine shuts off?
The pressure in solid copper of mass 100 kg is increased quasi-statically and isothermically at 0°C from 0 atm to 1000 atm (1 atm = 1.01325 x 10⁵ Pa). If you know that p = 8930 kg/m3 , k = 7.16 x 10^-12 Pa^-1, how many kJ of work will arise?
An airplane has wings, each with area 3.85 m2, designed so that air flows over the top of the wing at 248 m/s and underneath the wing at 226 m/s.   Approximately what size wings would an aircraft need on Mars if its engine generates the same differences in speed as in the "Practice It" and the total mass of the craft is 300 kg? The density of air on the surface of Mars is approximately one percent Earth's density at sea level, and the acceleration of gravity on the surface of Mars is about 3.8 m/s2. ______________m2
