1 Chapte Gaity Conceptual Pobles [SS] ue o false: (a) o Keple s law of equal aeas to be alid, the foce of aity ust ay inesely with the squae of the distance between a ien planet and the Sun. (b) he planet closest to the Sun has the shotest obital peiod. (c) Venus s obital speed is lae than the obital speed of ath. (d) he obital peiod of a planet allows accuate deteination of that planet s ass. (a) alse. Keple s law of equal aeas is a consequence of the fact that the aitational foce acts alon the line joinin two bodies but is independent of the anne in which the foce aies with distance. (b) ue. he peiods of the planets ay with the thee-hales powe of thei distances fo the sun. So the shote the distance fo the sun, the shote the peiod of the planet s otion. (c) ue. Settin up a popotion inolin the obital speeds of the two planets in tes of thei obital peiods and ean distances fo the Sun (see able -) shows that.. Venus 7 ath (d) alse. he obital peiod of a planet is independent of the planet s ass. If the ass of a sall ath-obitin satellite is doubled, the adius of its obit can eain constant if the speed of the satellite (a) inceases by a facto of 8, (b) inceases by a facto of, (c) does not chane, (d) is educed by a facto of 8, (e) is educed by a facto of. Deteine the Concept We can apply Newton s nd law and the law of aity to the satellite to obtain an expession fo its speed as a function of the adius of its obit. Apply Newton s nd law to the satellite to obtain: adial whee is the ass of the object the satellite is obitin and is the ass of the satellite. 9

2 9 Chapte Solin fo yields: hus the speed of the satellite is independent of its ass and (c) is coect. [SS] Duin what season in the nothen heisphee does ath attain its axiu obital speed about the Sun? What season is elated to its iniu obital speed? HIN: he ajo facto deteinin the seasons on ath is not the aiation in distance fo the Sun. Deteine the Concept ath is closest to the Sun duin winte in the nothen heisphee. his is the tie of fastest obital speed. Sue would be the tie fo iniu obital speed. Haley s coet is in a hihly elliptical obit about the Sun with a peiod of about 76 y. Its last closest appoach to the Sun occued in 987. In what yeas of the twentieth centuy was it taelin at its fastest o slowest obital speed about the Sun? Deteine the Concept Haley s coet was taelin at its fastest obital speed in 987, and at its slowest obital speed 8 yeas peiously in Venus has no natual satellites. Howee atificial satellites hae been placed in obit aound it. o use one of thei obits to deteine the ass of Venus, what obital paaetes would you hae to easue? How would you then use the to do the ass calculation? Deteine the Concept o obtain the ass of Venus you need to easue the peiod and sei-ajo axis a of the obit of one of the satellites, substitute the a π (Keple s d law), and sole fo. easued alues into ( ) 6 A ajoity of the asteoids ae in appoxiately cicula obits in a belt between as and Jupite. Do they all hae the sae obital peiod about the Sun? xplain. Deteine the Concept No. As descibed by Keple s d law, the asteoids close to the Sun hae a shote yea and ae obitin faste. 7 [SS] At the suface of the oon, the acceleation due to the aity of the oon is a. At a distance fo the cente of the oon equal to fou ties the adius of the oon, the acceleation due to the aity of the oon is (a) 6a, (b) a/, (c) a/, (d) a/6, (e) None of the aboe. Pictue the Poble he acceleation due to aity aies inesely with the squae of the distance fo the cente of the oon.

3 Gaity 9 xpess the dependence of the acceleation due to the aity of the oon on the distance fo its cente: a' xpess the dependence of the acceleation due to the aity of the oon at its suface on its adius: a Diide the fist of these expessions a' by the second to obtain: a Solin fo a and siplifyin yields: a' a a 6 ( ) and (d) is coect. a 8 At a depth equal to half the adius of ath, the acceleation due to aity is about (a) (b) (c) /, (d) /, (e) /8, (f) You cannot deteine the answe based on the data ien. Pictue the Poble We can use Newton s law of aity and the assuption of unifo density to expess the atio of the acceleation due to aity at a depth equal to half the adius of ath to the acceleation due to aity at the suface of ath. he acceleation due to aity at a depth equal to half the adius of ath is ien by: he acceleation due to aity at the suface of ath is ien by: Diidin the fist of these equations by the second and siplifyin yields: ' ' ( ) whee is the ass of ath between the location of inteest and the cente of ath.

If each of thei asses wee doubled, what would hae to happen to the distance between the in ode to aintain the sae aitational foce? he distance would hae to (a) eain the sae (b) double (c) quaduple (d) be educed by a facto of (e) You cannot deteine the answe based on the data ien. Pictue the Poble We can use Newton s law of aity to expess the atio of the foces and then sole this popotion fo the sepaation of the stas that would aintain the sae aitational foce. he aitational foce actin on the stas befoe thei asses ae doubled is ien by: he aitational foce actin on the stas afte thei asses ae doubled is ien by: Diidin the second of these equations by the fist yields: G ( )( ) G G ' ' ' G ' ' G ' Solin fo yields: ' and ( b) is coect. If you had been wokin fo NASA in the 96 s and plannin the tip to the oon, you would hae deteined that thee exists a unique location soewhee between ath and the oon, whee a spaceship is, fo an instant, tuly weihtless. [Conside only the oon, ath and the Apollo spaceship, and

5 Gaity 95 nelect othe aitational foces.] xplain this phenoenon and explain whethe this location is close to the oon, idway on the tip, o close to ath. Deteine the Concept Between ath and the oon, the aitational pulls on the spaceship ae oppositely diected. Because of the oon s elatiely sall ass copaed to the ass of ath, the location whee the aitational foces cancel (thus poducin no net aitational foce, a weihtless condition) is consideably close to the oon. [SS] Suppose the escape speed fo a planet was only slihtly lae than the escape speed fo ath, yet it was consideably lae than ath. How would the planet s (aeae) density copae to ath s (aeae) density? (a) It ust be oe dense. (b) It ust be less dense. (c) It ust be the sae density. (d) You cannot deteine the answe based on the data ien. Pictue the Poble he densities of the planets ae elated to the escape speeds fo thei sufaces thouh e. he escape speed fo the planet is ien by: planet planet planet he escape speed fo ath is ien by: ath ath ath xpessin the atio of the escape speed fo the planet to the escape speed fo ath and siplifyin yields: planet ath planet ath planet ath ath planet planet ath Because planet ath : ath planet planet ath Squain both sides of the equation yields: ath planet planet ath

Suppose that, usin telescope in you backyad, you discoeed a distant object appoachin the Sun, and wee able to deteine both its distance fo the Sun and its speed. How would you be able to pedict whethe the object will eain bound to the Sola Syste, o if it is an intestella intelope and would coe in, tun aound and escape, nee to etun? Deteine the Concept You could take caeful easueents of its position as a function of tie in ode to deteine whethe its tajectoy is an ellipse, a hypebola, o a paabola. If the path is an ellipse, it will etun; if its path is hypebolic o paabolic, it will not etun. Altenatiely, by easuin its distance fo the Sun, you can estiate the aitational potential eney (pe k of its ass, and nelectin the planets) of the object, and by deteinin its position on seeal successie nihts, the speed of the object can be deteined. o this, its kinetic eney (pe k) can be deteined. he su of these two ies the coet s total eney (pe k) and if it is positie, it will likely swin once aound the Sun and then leae the Sola Syste foee. [SS] Nea the end of thei useful lies, seeal lae ath-obitin satellites hae been aneueed so as to bun up as they ente ath s atosphee. hese aneues hae to be done caefully so lae faents do not ipact populated land aeas. You ae in chae of such a poject. Assuin the satellite of inteest has on-boad populsion, in what diection would you fie the ockets fo a shot bun tie to stat this downwad spial? What would happen to the kinetic eney, aitational potential eney and total echanical eney followin the bun as the satellite cae close and close to ath? Deteine the Concept You should fie the ocket in a diection to oppose the obital otion of the satellite. As the satellite ets close to ath afte the bun, the potential eney will decease as the satellite ets close to ath. Howee, the total echanical eney will decease due to the fictional da foces tansfoin echanical eney into theal eney. he kinetic eney will

7 Gaity 97 incease until the satellite entes the atosphee whee the da foces slow its otion. Duin a tip back fo the oon, the Apollo spacecaft fies its ockets to leae its luna obit. hen it coasts back to ath whee it entes the atosphee at hih speed, suies a blazin e-enty and paachutes safely into the ocean. In what diection do you fie the ockets to initiate this etun tip? xplain the chanes in kinetic eney, aitational potential and total echanical eney that occu to the spacecaft fo the beinnin to the end of this jouney. Deteine the Concept Nea the oon you would fie the ockets to acceleate the spacecaft with the thust actin in the diection of you ship s elocity at the tie. When the ockets hae shut down, as you leae the luna obit, you kinetic eney will initially decease (the oon s aitational pull exceeds that of ath), and you potential eney will incease. When you each a cetain point, ath s aitational attaction will bein acceleatin the ship and its kinetic eney will incease at the expense of the aitational potential eney of the spacecaft- ath-oon syste. he spacecaft will ente ath s atosphee with its axiu kinetic eney. entually, landin in the ocean, the kinetic eney will be zeo, the aitational potential eney a iniu, and the total echanical eney of the ship will hae been daatically educed due to ai da foces poducin heat and liht duin e-enty. 5 xplain why the aitational field inside a solid sphee of unifo ass is diectly popotional to athe than inesely popotional to. Deteine the Concept At a point inside the sphee a distance fo its cente, the aitational field stenth is diectly popotional to the aount of ass within a distance fo the cente, and inesely popotional to the squae of the distance fo the cente. he ass within a distance fo the cente is popotional to the cube of. hus, the aitational field stenth is diectly popotional to. 6 In the oie A Space Odyssey, a spaceship containin two astonauts is on a lon-te ission to Jupite. A odel of thei ship could be a unifo pencil-like od (containin the populsion systes) with a unifo sphee (the cew habitat and fliht deck) attached to one end. he desin is such that the adius of the sphee is uch salle than the lenth of the od. At a location a few etes away fo the ship, on the pependicula bisecto of the od-like section, what would be the diection of the aitational field due to the ship alone (that is, assuin all othe aitational fields ae neliible)? xplain you answe. At a lae distance fo the ship, what would be the dependence of its aitational field on the distance fo the ship?

8 98 Chapte Deteine the Concept he pictoial epesentation shows the point of inteest P and the aitational fields od and sphee due to the od and the sphee as well as the esultant field net. Note that the net field (the su of od and sphee ) points slihtly towad the habitat end of the ship. At ey lae distances, the od-sphee ass distibution looks like a point ass and so the field s distance dependence is an inese squae dependence.

(Nelect the ass fathe fo the cente than the Sun, and assue that the ass close to the cente than the Sun exets the sae foce on the Sun as would a point paticle of the sae ass located at the cente of the alaxy.) Pictue the Poble o appoxiate the ass of the alaxy we ll assue the alactic cente to be a point ass with the sun in obit about it and apply Keple s d law.

Aon these ways ae easueents of the aitational acceleation at the luna suface. stiate the aitational acceleation at the luna suface if the oon wee, in fact, a solid block of een cheese and copae it to the known alue of the aitational acceleation at the luna suface. Pictue the Poble he density of a planet o othe object deteines the stenth of the aitational foce it exets on othe objects. We can use Newton s law of aity to expess the acceleation due to aity at the suface of the oon as a function of the density of the oon. stiatin the density of cheese will then allow us to calculate what the acceleation due to aity at the suface of the oon would be if the oon wee ade of cheese. inally, we can copae this alue to the easued alue of.6 /s. Apply Newton s law of aity to an object of ass at the suface of the oon to obtain: Assuin the oon to be ade of cheese, substitute fo its ass to obtain: G a a a oon oon,cheese Gρ V cheese oon oon Substitutin fo the olue of the oon and siplifyin yields: a,cheese Gρ cheese oon π Gρ π cheese oon oon Substitute nueical alues and ealuate a : a,cheese π 6 k c 6 ( 6.67 N / k ).8 (.78 ).9 /s c

You ae concened that, due to the weak aitational field and esultin low escape speed, tethes iht be equied to bind the exploes to the suface of the asteoid. heefoe, if you do not wish to use tethes, you hae to be caeful about which asteoids to choose to exploe. stiate the laest adius the asteoid can hae that would still allow you to escape its suface by jupin. Assue spheical eoety and easonable ock density. Pictue the Poble he density of an asteoid deteines the stenth of the aitational foce it exets on othe objects. We can use the equation fo the escape speed fo an asteoid of ass asteoid and adius asteoid to deie an expession fo the adius of an asteoid as a function of its escape speed and density. We can appoxiate the escape speed fo the asteoid by deteinin one s push-off speed fo a jup at the suface of ath. he escape speed fo an asteoid is ien by: e,asteoid asteoid asteoid In tes of the density of the asteoid, e,asteoid becoes: e,asteoid Gρ asteoid asteoid π asteoid 8 πgρ asteoid asteoid Solin fo asteoid yields: Usin a constant-acceleation equation, elate the heiht h to which you can jup on the suface of ath to you push-off speed: e,asteoid asteoid () 8 πgρ asteoid h o, because, h h Lettin e,asteoid, substitute in equation () and siplify to obtain: h asteoid πgρ 8 asteoid h πgρ asteoid

Since 996, planets hae been detected obitin stas othe than the Sun. While the planets theseles cannot be seen diectly, telescopes can detect the sall peiodic otion of the sta as the sta and planet obit aound thei coon cente of ass. (his is easued usin the Dopple effect, which is discussed in Chapte 5.) Both the peiod of this otion and the aiation in the speed of the sta oe the couse of tie can be deteined obseationally. he ass of the sta is found fo its obseed luinance and fo the theoy of stella stuctue. Iota Daconis is the 8th bihtest sta in the constellation Daco. Obseations show that a planet, with an obital peiod of.5 y, is obitin this sta. he ass of Iota Daconis is.5 Sun.

(Only a lowe bound can be established, as the plane of the obit is not known.) One of the biest unesoled pobles in the theoy of the foation of the sola syste is that, while the ass of the Sun is 99.9 pecent of the total ass of the Sola Syste, it caies only about pecent of the total anula oentu. he ost widely accepted theoy of sola syste foation has as its cental hypothesis the collapse of a cloud of dust and as unde the foce of aity, with ost of the ass foin the Sun.

(a) he Sun is a cloud of as held toethe by the foce of aity. If the Sun wee otatin too apidly, aity couldn t hold it toethe. Usin the known ass of the Sun (.99 k) and its adius ( ), estiate the axiu anula speed that the Sun can hae if it is to stay intact. What is the peiod of otation coespondin to this otation ate? (b) Calculate the obital anula oentu of Jupite and of Satun fo thei asses (8 and 95. ath asses, espectiely), ean distances fo the Sun (778 and illion k, espectiely), and obital peiods (.9 and 9.5 y, espectiely). Copae the to the expeientally easued alue of the Sun s anula oentu of.9 k /s.

Copae this to the axiu otational peiod of Pat (a). Pictue the Poble We can apply Newton s law of aity to estiate the axiu anula speed which the sun can hae if it is to stay toethe and use the definition of anula oentu to find the obital anula oenta of Jupite and Satun.
