The escape speed from an object is v2 = 2GM/R, where M is the mass of the object, R is the object's starting radius, and G is th

e gravitational constant 6.67 × 10-11 m3 kg-1 s-2. What is the approximate escape speed, in km/s, from the Solar System starting from an orbit at 1.0 AU? In this case, the mass of the Sun, 2.3e+30 kg, can be used as the mass of the Solar system

Answer:

Approximate escape speed = 45.3 km/s

Explanation:

Escape speed

        v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}

Here we have

   Gravitational constant = G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻²

   R = 1 AU = 1.496 × 10¹¹ m

   M = 2.3 × 10³⁰ kg

Substituting

    v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 2.3\times 10^{30}}{1.496\times 10^{11}}}=4.53\times 10^4m/s=45.3km/s

Approximate escape speed = 45.3 km/s

A penny is placed on a rotating turntable. where on the turntable does the penny require the largest centripetal force to remain
Mama L [17]

m = mass of the penny

r = distance of the penny from the center of the turntable or axis of rotation

w = angular speed of rotation of turntable

F = centripetal force experienced by the penny

centripetal force "F" experienced by the penny of "m" at distance "r" from axis of rotation is given as

F = m r w²

in the above equation , mass of penny "m"  and angular speed "w" of the turntable is same at all places. hence the centripetal force directly depends on the radius .

hence greater the distance from center , greater will be the centripetal force to remain in place.  

So at the edge of the turntable , the penny experiences largest centripetal force to remain in place.
