An unmanned multi-stage ARC rocket, carrying a weather satellite, is launched towards the planet Venus. At
various altitudes above Earth, first the fuel tanks and then the booster rockets, fall back to Earth and the satellite
continues to Venus.
(i) Describe the changing acceleration of the rocket after launch.
Venus is known as the 'Earth's sister' because of its similar size and gravity. It has a mass of 4.87 x 1024 kg and an
average radius of 6060 km. As the 150 kg satellite slowly approaches the surface of Venus it is influenced by its
gravitational field.
(ii) Describe how the satellite gravitational potential energy changes as it is moving from an altitude of 5000 km to the
surface of Venus.
(iii) Calculate the gravitational field strength on the surface of Venus.
(II) A skateboarder, with an initial speed of 2.0 m/s, rolls
virtually friction free down a straight incline of length 18 m
in 3.3 s. At what angle 0 is the incline oriented above the
horizontal?
*13–112. The pilot of an airplane executes a vertical loop
which in part follows the path of a “four-leaved rose,"
r = (-600cos 20) ft, where 0 is in radians. If his speed is a
constant vp = 80 ft/s, determine the vertical reaction the
seat of the plane exerts on the pilot when the plane is at A.
He weights 130 lb. Hint: To determine the time derivatives
necessary to compute the acceleration components a,
and a, take the first and second time derivatives of
r = 400(1 + cos0). Then, for further information, use
Eq. 12–26 to determine ô. Also, take the time derivative of
Eq. 12–26, noting that vp = 0 to determine ở.
