Lagrangian points (also Lagrange point, L-point, or libration point), are the five positions in an orbital configuration where a small object affected only by gravity can theoretically be stationary relative to two larger objects (such as a satellite with respect to the Earth and Moon). The Lagrange points mark positions where the combined gravitational pull of the two large masses provides precisely the centripetal force required to rotate with them. The L, point lies on the line defined by the...

The Earth has a mass of 5.97 * 1024 kg and the Sun has a mass of 2.00 * 1030 kg. If they are separated by a distance of 1.50 * 108 km, what is the force (in N) between the Earth and the Sun? Answer in Sci Notation. Then, assuming the Earth travels in a perfect circle around the Sun, with masses and distances given above, and takes 365.25 days to complete a complete circle. What is the centripetal...

2. Aristarchus of Samos (310-230 BC) was a Greek mathematician and astronomer who first proposed a heliocentric model for our solar system, thousands of years before Copernicus. His ideas were based on his calculations of the sires of the Earth, Moon, and Sun. The approach below is a simplified version of his approach that includes knowledge of the work of contemporaries, such as the calculation of the Earth's radius by Eratosthenes of Cyrene (276-194 BC).

The Center of Mass of the Earth-Moon-Sun System
In this problem, you will calculate the location of the center of mass for the Earth-Moon system, and then you will calculate the center of mass of the earth-Moon-Sun system. The mass of the Moon is \(7.35 \times 10^{22} \mathrm{~kg}\), the mass of the Earth is \(6.00 \times 10^{24} \mathrm{~kg}\), and the mass of the sun is \(2.00 \times 10^{30} \mathrm{~kg}\). The distance between the Moon and the Earth is \(3.80 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~km}\). The distance between the Earth and...

Calculate the average power that the surface of Earth facing the Sun receives from the Sun. Assuming that the Earth is a blackbody and radiates the same amount of power that it absorbs from the Sun, calculate the average surface temperature of the Earth. Does your answer make sense compared to your experience? The Sun’s surface temperature is 5800 K, its radius is 6.96x108 m, the distance between Earth and the Sun is 1.5x1011 m, and the radius of the...

During a solar eclipse the Moon is positioned directly between Earth and the Sun. Find the magnitude of the net gravitational force acting on the Moon then, due to both Earth and the Sun. The masses of the Sun, Earth, and the Moon are 1.99 x100 kg, 5.98 x1024 kg, and 7.36 x 1022 kg, respectively. The Moon's mean distance from Earth is 3.84 × 108 m, and Earth's mean distance from the Sun is 1.50 x 1011 m. The...

On Jan. 2 this year, Earth was 1.471x10^13 cm from the Sun, its closest point to the Sun. The semi-major axis of Earth's orbit around the Sun is 1AU (1.496x10^13 cm. Use this information to determine: A. The eccentricity of Earth's orbit around the Sun. B. The difference between the maximum distance between the Earth and Sun, and the minimum distance between the Earth and the Sun. Convert your answer to AU
