Suppose there were a planet in our Solar System orbiting at a distance of 0.5 AU from the Sun, and having ten times the mass and four times the radius of Earth. For reference, the Earth has a mass of 5.97 × 1024 kg and a radius of 6,378 km. a) Calculate the density of this hypothetical planet. b) Based on your answer from part a), what do you think this planet would be made of? Explain your reasoning. c)...

Imagine you are on a planet outside our solar system and you observe that your weight is the same as on Earth. However, the planet has a larger size than Earth. Which statement about the escape speed on that planet is correct? The escape speed is smaller than that on Earth. The escape speed is larger than that on Earth. The escape speed is the same as on Earth. The escape speed is zero. The escape speed is infinitely large.

A new extrasolar planet (outside our solar system) has been discovered. This planet orbits a star of mass 1.05×1031 kg with a period of 6.52 years . It is also known that the planet has an eccentricity of 0.674. Part A: What is the average velocity of the planet in its orbit? in m/s Part B: What is the distance of closest approach to its parent start (perihelion)? d.perihelion in m Part C: What is the farthest distance the planet...

. In a distant solar system, a spacecraft travels between Planet A and Planet X in a straight line at speed v = 0.90 c at a time when A and X are 3.24 x 1011 m apart. The distance is measured in the fixed frame of reference, in which the sun, Planet A, and Planet X are at rest. (We neglect any motion of the planets with respect to each other and the sun during this short time.) a....

Earth II is a planet in a distant solar system which is earth-like, but a little smaller than our earth. In the distance future, Earth II has been settled by bold travelers from our home planet. Very far from Earth II (effectively at R=∞), a spacecraft has run out of fuel and its kinetic energy is zero. If only the gravitational force of Earth II were to act on the spacecraft (i.e., neglect the forces from the sun and other...

Venus is our closest neighbor in the solar system. However, due to a rampant green house effect (the atmosphere consists mostly of CO2), its average surface temperature is 864 degrees F. Still, while it may be a while before we can visit Venus, radar-equipped satellites have recently mapped out its surface and measured its radius. QUESTION 1: The mass of Venus is 4.87×10^24 kg and average radius is 6,052 km. What is the acceleration due to gravity (g) on its...

In our solar system, when the ratio of the orbital periods of two objects has some special values, this corresponds to an orbital resonance. Particularly interesting are the resonance between Jupiter and objects on the asteroid belt. a. Calculate the semi-major axes that correspond to the following resonances with Jupiter PJ /PAst =3 , PJ /PAst = 5 2 , PJ /PAst = 7 3 , and PJ /PAst =2 , where PJ is the orbital period of Jupiter and...

To maintain the surface tension which formed our original bubble (in order to keep the bubble from breaking), we may change the temperature/pressure of air on both sides of the bubble varyingly, with different rates. Is such a configuration possible? Examples of any such system?

1) Trace a drop of blood from the renal artery to the renal vein. Name all the blood vessels. 2) How does filtrate form? What pressures are involved? What affect does each pressure have on formation? Trace a drop of filtrate from its formation to the point where it turns into urine. Explain ALL of the micro anatomy; and the physiology that occurs at each microanatomical structure along the way. 3) What would happen if HPg dropped by 16mm Hg?...
