In Example 2.6, we considered a simple model for a rocket launched from the surface of the Earth. A better expression for the rockets position measured from the center of the Earth is given by y(t)=(R3/2+3g2Rt)2/3j where R is the radius of the Earth (6.38 106 m) and g is the constant acceleration of an object in free fall near the Earths surface (9.81 m/s2). a. Derive expressions for vy(t) and ay(t). b. Plot y(t), vy(t), and ay(t). (A spreadsheet program would be helpful.) c. When will the rocket be at y=4R? d. What are vy and ay when y=4R?
You are on the surface of a planet with no atmosphere. This planet has mass 9.8 x 1023 kg and radius 1.3 x 105 m. You throw a ball (mass irrelevant) straight upward with a velocity of 12.8 x 103 m/s.

A pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star that emits a radio beam the way a lighthouse emits a light beam. We receive a radio pulse for each rotation of the star.

(a) What is the pulsar's angular acceleration a? (b) If a is constant, how many years from now will the pulsar stop rotating?

The orbit of the moon about the earth is approximately circular, with a mean radius of 3.84 x 10° m. It takes 27.3 days for the moon to complete a revolution about the earth.

(2) Find the mean radial acceleration of the moon in unit of m/s (3) Assuming a star-body/girl of mass 100kg flies together with the moon, neglect the attraction due to the moon and all other non- earth bodies in space, what is the force on the star-boy/girl?
A pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star that emits a radio beam the way a lighthouse emits a light beam. We receive a radio pulse for each rotation of the star.

The equatorial radius of the Earth is 6378 km and gravity at the equator is 9.780 m s-2. Compute the ratio m of the centrifugal acceleration at the equator to the gravitational acceleration at the equator. If the ratio m is written as 1/k, what is the value of k?
In this problem, you are going to explore three different ways to determine the gravitational constant G. a) By observing that the centripetal acceleration of the Moon around the Earth is ac = 2.66 × 10-3 m/s2, what is the gravitatonal constant G, in cubic meters per kilogram per square second? Assume the Earth has a mass of ME = 5.96 × 1024 kg, and the mean distance between the centers of the Earth and Moon is rm = 3.81 × 108 m. b) Measuring the centripetal acceleration of an orbiting object is rather difficult, so an alternative approach is to use the period of the orbiting object. Find an expression for the gravitational constant in terms of the distance between the gravitating objects rm, the mass of the larger body (the earth) ME, and the period of the orbiting body T. c) The gravitational constant may also be calculated by analyzing the motion of an object, launched from the surface of the earth at an initial velocity of vi. Find an expression of the gravitational constant…
