A planet in an elliptical orbit around a star moves at 30 km s−1 when at perihelion (1 AU from star). What velocity will the planet have at aphelion (3 AU from star)
The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) spacecraft has a special orbit, located between the Earth and the Sun along the line joining them, and it is always close enough to the Earth to transmit data easily. Both objects exert gravitational forces on the observatory. It moves around the Sun in a near-circular orbit that is smaller than the Earth's circular orbit. Its period, however, is not less than 1 yr but just equal to 1 yr. Show that its distance...

In Example 34.6, we imagined equipping 1950DA, an asteroid on a collision course with the Earth, with a solar sail in hopes of ejecting it from the solar system. We found that the enormous size required for the solar sail makes the plan impossible at this time. Of course, there is no need to eject such an object from the solar system; we only need to change the orbit. A much more pressing problem is Apophis, a 300-m asteroid that may be...
1. Halley’s Comet moves in an elongated elliptical orbit around the Sun. Its distances from the sun at perihelion and aphelion are 8.75 × 107 km and 5.26 × 109 km, respectively. Find the orbital semi-major axis, eccentricity, and period for Halley’s Comet. 2。 A toboggan loaded with students (total weight 300 kg) slides down a snow-covered slope. The hill slopes at a constant angle 40.0 ◦ , and the toboggan is so well waxed that there is virtually no...
Problem 4*: (Motion along a spiral) A particle of mass m moves in a gravitational field along the spiral z = k0, r = constant, where k is a constant, and z is the vertical direction. Find the Hamiltonian H(z, p) for the particle motion. Find and solve Hamilton's equations of motion. Show in the limit r = 0, 2 = -g.
A new extrasolar planet (outside our solar system) has been discovered. This planet orbits a star of mass 1.03×1031 kg with a period of 6.52 years .
