You have a rocket of mass 2350 kg. How much work does the force
of gravity do on the rocket if it moves from Earth's surface to 3.0
times the Earth's radius away? Be careful to use the definition
of work that accounts for a force that changes based on
location!
J
G = 6.67 x 10-11 m3/kg/s2
MEarth = 5.97 x 1024 kg
REarth = 6.37 x 106 m
What is the change in gravitational potential energy as the
rocket moves from the Earth's surface to a distance 3.0 times the
Earth's radius away?
J
If the rocket were 100% efficient, how many joules of chemical
energy would it need to use to move from the Earth's surface to a
distance 3.0 times the Earth's radius away at a constant
speed?
J
