SECTION2 You wake up one morning to find yourself in a strange room with opaque walls, and no visible doors or windows. Clearly you've been abducted in your sleep! You're immediately aware that the local gravity feels different from what you're accustomed to, so it's clear you're not at rest on the surface of the Earth. You decide to do some experiments to find out more about your strange situation. Fortunately there seems to be some measuring equipment in the...

You wake up one morning to find that you have been abducted by aliens. In a desperate escape attempt, you steal a small spacecraft and try to run away. Once you leave the alien saucer, you realize you are in orbit around an unknown planet with a very large moon. Using the distances and masses of the bodies in the given diagram, calculate the speed that you need to reach in order to escape the gravitational pull of this system....
You 2. You wake up one morning to find that you have been 2x109 m abducted by aliens. In a desperate escape attempt, you steal a small spacecraft and try to run away. Once you leave the alien saucer, you realize you are in orbit around an unknown 2x1028 kg planet with a very large moon. a. Using the distances and masses of the bodies in the 5x10m (not to scale) given diagram, calculate the speed that you need to...
NEED ALL OF THE CORRECT ANSWERS PLEASE. IF YOU CANNOT ANSWER ALL, DO NOT WASTE MY CHANCE FOR QUESTIONS, PLEASE. MUCH APPRECIATED! …… Question 5 -- /5 Two blocks are positioned on surfaces, each inclined at the same angle of 57.4 degrees with respect to the horizontal. The blocks are connected by a rope which rests on a frictionless pulley at the top of the inclines as shown, so the blocks can slide together. The mass of the black block...
Suppose you are a space traveler, and you land on the surface of a strange new planet. As stated in your Starfleet Manual, your first job is to measure the acceleration due to gravity, g, on this planet. You construct an "Atwood machine", which consists of two masses connected to a pulley by a string of negligible mass, as shown in the figure. One of the masses is m1 = 50.0 kg and the other is m2 = 39.0 kg....
2. Consider a system consisting of the Sun, Earth, and a satellite in a circular orbit about the Earth. (a) Plot the gravitational acceleration of the satellite due to Earth's gravity as a function of the altitude of the satellite as measured from the surface of the Earth. Scale your plot so that the altitude goes from 0 km to 104 km. (b) Assume that the satellite instantaneously lies on the line between the Earth and the Sun. Make two...
4 Situation 1: On Earth, you kick a box with a speed of 2 ms? up a smooth ramp that makes a 60° angle with the horizontal. Find the maximum dis- tance the box will travel up the ramp. Then find how long before the box reaches you at the base of the ramp again. 1 Situation 2: Now imagine you are on planet X whose mass is twice that of Earth's but with a radius that is also twice...
You’ve been abducted by aliens! You wake up aboard a spaceship to find yourself completely immersed in a tank full of dense green goo. The aliens are scanning you with a laser aimed at the tank, as shown in the figure below. The tank has a shiny surface, but is also clear enough for you to see the room around you and the laser shining in. The incoming laser light ray hits the surface at an angle. a) Draw in...
2.77During your summer internship for an aerospace com F pany, you are asked to design a small research rocket. The rocket is to be launched from rest from the earth's surface and is to reach a maximum height of 960 m above the earth's surface. The rock- et's engines give the rocket an upward acceleration of 16.0 m/s during the time T that they fire. After the engines shut off, the rocket is in free fall. Ignore air resistance. What...
