and height h. 11-16 (a) Consider a vector function with the property Vx everywhere on two closed curves Cy and C, and on any surface S of the region enclosed by them (see the figure). Show that the circulation of F around C, equals the circulation of F around C In calculating the circulations direct the curves as indi- cated by the arrows in the figure. capping Ci (b) The magnetic field due to an infinitely long straight wire car...
1. A moon of mass \(m\) orbits around a non-rotating planet of mass \(M\) with orbital angular velocity \(\Omega\). The moon also rotates about its own axis with angular velocity \(\omega\). The axis of rotation of the moon is perpendicular to the plane of the orbit. Let \(I\) be the moment of inertia of the moon about its own axis. You can assume \(m<<M\)so that the center ofmass of the system is at the center of the planet.(a) What is...
Analysis Model Tutorial As an astronaut, you observe a small planet to be spherical. After landing on the planet, you set off, walking always straight ahead, and find yourself returning to your spacecraft from the opposite side after completing a lap of 26.0 km. You hold a hammer and a falcon feather at a height of 1.76 m, release them, and observe that they fall together to the surface in 29.7 s. Determine the mass of the planet. Part 1...
23. A spacecraft is in orbit around the Earth, where if feels a gravitational force of magnitude F. At that moment, it is located a distance L away from the center of the Earth. Later, the spacecraft leaves orbit and travels away from the Earth to visit an asteroid which is passing by. When it reaches the asteroid, it is a distance 40L away from the center of the Earth. What is the force of gravity on the spacecraft from...
To register the verticals vibrations, we use the instrument that is show in the figure 23, in which a rigid framework AOB, who carries the weight W, can rotate around an axis that passes through O and it is perpendicular to the plane of the figure. Determine the frequencies of the small verticals vibrations if the moment of inertia 1 of the frame plus its weight, with respect to the axis passing through O and the spring constant k are...
1 points SPreCalc7112.065.MI. My Notes Ask Your Teacher The planets move around the sun in elliptical orbits with the sun at one focus. The point in the orbit at which the planet is closest to the sun is called perihelion, and the point at which it is farthest is called aphelion. These points are the vertices of the orbit. A planet's distance from the sun is 207,000,000 km at perihelion and 249,000,000 km at aphelion. Find an equation for the...
(4) (a) Determine the standard matrix A for the rotation r of R 3 around the z-axis through the angle π/3 counterclockwise. Hint: Use the matrix for the rotation around the origin in R 2 for the xy-plane. (b) Consider the rotation s of R 3 around the line spanned by h 1 2 3 i through the angle π/3 counterclockwise. Find a basis of R 3 for which the matrix [s]B,B is equal to A from (a). (c) Give...
Consider a point charge q located at the point az (see Fig. 1). The point charge is surrounded by a spherical surface of radius R centered at the origin which is cut off at theV2R/2 plane resulting in the open surface shown in Fig. 1 (turnover page). We shall refer to this surface as B (a) Using spherical polar coordinates (r.. o) state the radial component of the electric field E, from q everywhere on B (b) Calculate the electric...
A gray-body fly with long wings is subjected to a test cross. The F1 progeny of this test cross: Will only be of two phenotypes if the test cross fly is homozygous for both traits. Will only be of two phenotypes if the gray-bodied/long-winged fly is homozygous for both traits. Will be of four genotypes if the gray-bodies/long-winged fly is heterozygous for both traits. Will be of four genotypes if the test-cross fly is heterozygous for both traits. None of...
Two stars, each of mass M, orbit around their center of mass. The radius of their common orbit is r (their separation is 2r). A planetoid of mass m (<< M) happens to move along the axis of the system (the line perpendicular to the orbital plane which intersects the center of mass) as shown in the figure. a. Calculate directly the force on the planetoid if it is displaced a distance z from the center of mass (you’ll need...
