A possible means of space flight is to place a perfectly reflecting aluminized sheet into orbit around the Earth and then use the light from the Sun to push this "solar sail." Suppose a sail of area A 5.9010 m2 and mass m 4,800 kg is placed in orbit facing the Sun. Ignore all gravitational effects and assume a solar intensity of 1,370 W/m2 (a) What force (in N) is exerted on the sail? (Enter the magnitude.) 4.47 If you...

A possible means of space flight is to place a perfectly reflecting aluminized sheet into orbit around the Earth and then use the light from the Sun to push this "solar sail." Suppose a sail of area A = 6.40 x 105 m2 and mass m = 7,100 kg is placed in orbit facing the Sun. Ignore all gravitational effects and assume a solar intensity of 1,370 W/m² (a) What force in N) is exerted on the sail? (Enter the...

Part (a) Homework. Unanswered We have a rather small solar sail, which has a mass of 30.0 kg, and a sail area of 60000 m. At a particular distance from the Sun, the Sun's gravitational field is 0.004 N/kg, and the intensity of sunlight is 1000 W/m². Assuming the plane of the sail is perpendicular to the incident light, and the light is 100% reflected, what is the magnitude of the force exerted on the sail by the light? N...

The region around the Earth is filling up with space junk such as old satellites. One idea for cleaning up space involves using sails that create drag (see figure below) Perhaps one day satellites will be equipped with sails that are deployed at the end of their missions. The NASA mission NanoSail-D was launched in 2010 to test this idea. This problem compares the drag on a solar sail due to the Earth's upper atmosphere with the force exerted on...

Constants In this example we will investigate the viability of using radiation pressure to propel a spacecraft. Suppose a spacecraft with a mass of 2.50 x 10 kg has a solar sail made of perfectly reflective aluminized film with an area of 2.59 x 106 m2 (about 1 square mile). If the spacecraft is launched into earth orbit and then deploys its sail at right angles to the sunlight, what is the acceleration due to sunlight? (At the earth's distance...
