I got G = 6.67E-11, and M=2E30 kg and just multiplied GM together.
But I think I might get it now...it's the first problem of part b that's bugging me. Thanks. :)
I got the first part of problem 1, but the 2nd part of problem 1 is bugging me. How can you actually know what the velocity(in symbolic form) is?
You said for part b of the 2nd problem was like, set 25000 = -GmM/r^2...but I got some gigantic number(about 73000km) instead of 220. I swapped...
I'm stuck on 2 problems.
T5.11.96) One big question is planetary science is whether each of the rings of Saturn is solid or composed of many smaller satellites. There is a simple observation that can now be made to resolve this issue. Measure the velocity of the inner and outer portion of the...
I need serious help with these problems. They are all from Physics for Engineers and Scientist, 5th Edition by Paul Tipler.
5. [Tipler5 10.P.050.] A uniform cylinder of mass 105 kg and radius 0.5 m is mounted so that it turns without friction on its fixed symmetry axis. It is rotated by a...
