The IKAROS spacecraft, launched in 2010, was designed to test the feasibility of solar sails for spacecraft propulsion. These large, ultralight sails are pushed on by the force of light from the sun, so the spacecraft doesn't need to carry any fuel. The force on IKAROS's sails was measured to be 1.12 mNmN.
If this were the only force acting on the 290 kg spacecraft, by how much would its speed increase after 7.0 months of flight? Assume there are 30 days in each month.
The radius Rh of a black hole is the radius of a mathematical sphere, called the event horizon, that is centered on the black hole. Information from events inside the event horizon cannot reach the outside world. According to Einstein's general theory of relativity, Rh = 2GM/c2, where M is the mass of the black hole and c is the speed of light.
Suppose that you wish to study a black hole near it, at a radial distance of 48Rh. However, you do not want the difference in gravitational acceleration between your feet and your head to exceed 10 m/s2 when you are feet down (or head down) toward the black hole.
(a) Take your height to be 1.5 m. What is the limit to the mass of the black hole you can tolerate at the given radial distance? Give the ratio of this mass to the mass MS of our Sun.

- Einstein concluded that gravity is the warping of the geometry of space-time based on the presence of matter. He published this theory—known as the general theory of relativity—in 1915. Einstein based the theory entirely on mathematics. He suggested a way of putting it to the test. He knew that the sun has a strong gravitational field. Its mass (about 1.99 × 10 30 kilograms) should not only affect the orbits of its planets but anything nearby. According to relativity, the sun’s gravitational field should bend light traveling to Earth from distant stars. Explain this in simpler terms.arrow_forwardThe CERN particle accelerator is circular with a circumference of 7.0 km. (a) What is the acceleration of the protons (m = 1.67 × 10−27 kg) that move around the accelerator at 5% of the speed of light?

We will do this by finding the gravitational field g due to the Moon or the Sun, which is the acceleration that the Earth would have if it were interacting with each of them. For reference, the Moon has a mass of 7.34 × 1022 kilograms and is located 3.84 × 105 kilometers away from the Earth. The Sun, meanwhile, has a mass of 1.99 × 1030 kilograms and is located 1.49 × 108 kilometers away from the Earth.
