Answer:
A) if each astronaut breathes about 500 cm³, the total volume of air breathed in a year is 14716.8m³.
B) The Diameter of this spherical space station should be 30.4m
Explanation:
The breathing frequency (according to Rochester encyclopedia) is about 12-16 breath per minute. if we take the mean value (14 breath per minute), we can estimate the total breaths of a person along a year:
If we multiply this for the number of people in the station and the volume each breath needs, we obtain the volume breathed in a year.
The volume of a sphere is:
So the diameter is:
Answer:
a) K = 2/3 π G m ρ R₁³ / R₂ , b) U = - G m M / r
Explanation:
The law of universal gravitation is
F = G m M / r²
Part A
Let's use Newton's second law
F = m a
The acceleration is centripetal
a = v² / R₂
G m M / R₂² = m v² / R₂
v² = G M / R₂
They give us the density of the planet
ρ = M / V
V = 4/3 π R₁³
M = ρ V
M = ρ 4/3 π R₁³
v² = 4/3 π G ρ R₁³ / R₂
K = ½ m v²
K = ½ m (4/3 π G ρ R₁³ / R₂)
K = 2/3 π G m ρ R₁³ / R₂
Part B
Potential energy and strength are related
F = - dU / dr
∫ dU = - ∫ F. dr
The force was directed towards the center and the vector r outwards therefore there is an angle of 180º between the two cos 180 = -1
U- U₀ = G m M ∫ dr / r²
U - U₀ = G m M (- r⁻¹)
We evaluate for
U - U₀ = -G m M (1 / - 1 /
)
They indicate that for ri = ∞ U₀ = 0
U = - G m M / r
