a small asteroid of mass 125 kg is orbiting a planet that has a mass of 3.52x 10^13 what is the radial distance between the aste
asambeis [7]

Answer:

r = 2.031 x 10⁶ m = 2031 km

Explanation:

In order for the asteroid to orbit the planet, the centripetal force must be equal to the gravitational force between asteroid and planet:

Centripetal Force = Gravitational Force

mv²/r = GmM/r²

v² = GM/r

r = GM/v²

where,

r = radial distance = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

M = Mass of Planet = 3.52 x 10¹³ kg

v = tangential speed = 0.034 m/s

Therefore,

r = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(3.52 x 10¹³ kg)/(0.034 m/s)²

<u>r = 2.031 x 10⁶ m = 2031 km</u>

A comet is in an elliptical orbit around the Sun. Its closest approach to the Sun is a distance of 4.8 1010 m (inside the orbit
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Distance d_i = 4.8 \times 10^{10} \ m

Speed of the comet V_i = 9.1 \times 10^{4} \ m/s

At distance d_2 = 6 \times 10^{12} \ m

where;

mass of the sun = 1.98 \times 10^{30}

G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11}

To find the speed V_f:

Using the formula:

E_f = E_i + W \\ \\  where; \  \  W = 0  \ \  \text{since work done by surrounding is zero (0)}

E_f = E_i + 0 \\ \\  K_f + U_f = K_i + U_i  \\ \\ = \dfrac{1}{2}mV_f^2 +  \dfrac{-GMm}{d^2} =  \dfrac{1}{2}mV_i^2+ \dfrac{-GMm}{d_i} \\ \\ V_f = \sqrt{V_i^2 + 2 GM \Big [  \dfrac{1}{d_2}- \dfrac{1}{d_i}\Big ]}

V_f = \sqrt{(9.1 \times 10^{4})^2 + 2 (6.67\times 10^{-11}) *(1.98 * 10^{30} ) \Big [  \dfrac{1}{6*10^{12}}- \dfrac{1}{4.8*10^{10}}\Big ]}

\mathbf{V_f =53.125 \times 10^4 \ m/s}

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

A physical quantity which can be completely described by the magnitude and direction both are called vector quantities. For example, displacement, velocity, etc.

A physical quantity which can be completely explained by the magnitude only is called scalar quantity. For example, mass, time, etc.
