Begin with a spherical hydrogen molecular cloud (H2) of 8 solar masses, temperature of 10 K, and number density nH2 of 1010 m-3. (a) Considering that density is mass/unit volume, if the density of the cloud is uniform, show that the radius of the cloud is R = [3 Msun/(pmHnH2)]1/3. Putting in the numbers, what will be the radius of the cloud? Express your answer in AU. (b) Compare to the Jeans length. Will the cloud collapse?

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...
