It is observed that the number of asteroids (or meteoroids) of a given diameter is roughly inversely proportional to the square

of the diameter.
Part A

Assuming a density of 3000 kg/m3 and approximating the actual distribution of asteroids and meteoroids as a single 1000-km body (Ceres), one hundred 100-km bodies, 10 thousand 10-kmbodies, and so on, calculate the total mass in the form of 1000-km bodies.

Part B

Calculate the total mass in the form of 100-km bodies.

Part C

Calculate the total mass in the form of 10-km bodies.

Part D

Calculate the total mass in the form of 1-km bodies.

Answer:

(a) M =  =1.57 *10²¹kg

(b) M =  =1.57 *10²⁰kg

(c) M =  =1.57 *10¹⁹kg

(d) M =  =1.57 *10¹⁸kg

Explanation:

(a) For 1000km body, diameter D = 1000km = 1,000,000 m

and N = (1000/D)² = (1000/1000km)² =  1

substituting into the formula, we have

M = 1 * 4/3 π*3000*[1000000/2]³

   =1.57 *10²¹kg

(b) For 100km body, diameter D = 100km = 100,000 m

and N = (1000/D)² = (1000/100km)² =  100

substituting into the formula, we have

M = 1 * 4/3 π*3000*[100000/2]³

   =1.57 *10²⁰kg

(C) For 10km body, diameter D = 10km = 10,000 m

and N = (1000/D)² = (1000/10km)² =  100

substituting into the formula, we have

M = 1 * 4/3 π*3000*[10000/2]³

   =1.57 *10¹⁹kg

(C) For 1km body, diameter D = 1km = 1,000 m

and N = (1000/D)² = (1000/1km)² =  100

substituting into the formula, we have

M = 1 * 4/3 π*3000*[1000/2]³

   =1.57 *10¹⁸kg

An airplane flies in a loop (a circular path in a vertical plane) of radius 160 m . The pilot's head always points toward the ce
notka56 [123]

Answer:

a) 39.6 m/s b) 4123 N

Explanation:

a) At the top of the loop, all of the forces point downwards (force of gravity and normal force).

Fnet=ma

ma=m(v^2/R) (centripetal acceleration)

mg=m(v^2/R)

m cancels out (this is why pilot feels weightless) so,

g=(v^2/R)

9.8 m/s^2 = v^2/160 m

v^2=1568 m^2/s^2

v=39.6 m/s

b) At the bottom of the loop, the normal force and the force of gravity point in opposite directions. The normal force is the weight felt.

Convert 300 km/hr to m/s

300 km/hr=83.3 m/s

Convert pilot's weight into mass:

760 N = 77.55 kg

Fnet=ma

n-mg=m(v^2/R)

n=(77.55 kg)(((83.3 m/s)^2)/160 m)+(77.55 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)

n=3363.2 N+760 N=4123 N
