Problem 4 An earth-orbiting satellite has solar energy collecting panels with a total area of 4.0 m Fig. 32.21). If the sun's radiation is perpen dicular to the panels and is completely absorbed, find the average solar power absorbed and the average radiation-pressure force Sun sensor (to keep panels facing the sun) Solar panels

We know that the Earth moves about the Sun due to the gravity force exerted by the Sun, that is, the Earth is a “satellite” to the Sun, just like the moon to the Earth. Assume the Earth follows uniform circle motion about the Sun, and ignore gravity force due to objects other than the Sun. Estimate the orbital speed of the Earth = _______ m/s? The Earth has mass =5.98 x 1024 kg and radius 6.4 x 106 m....

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...

Suppose you designed a spacecraft to work by photon pressure. The sail was a completely absorbing fabric of area 1.0 km2 and you directed a laser beam of wavelength 650 nm onto it at a rate of 1 mol of photons per second from a base on the moon. What is (a) the force, (b) the pressure exerted by the radiation on the sail? (c) The spacecraft has a mass of 1.0 kg. Given that, after a period of acceleration...

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...
