Question 1

Calculate the Earth's angular momentum in the approximation that treats the Earth's orbit around the sun as a circle. (MSun = 1.99 × 1030 kg; T = 3.156 × 107 s; ME = 5.98 × 1024 kg.)


Question 2

Isaac Newton was able to estimate a value for G, the universal gravitational constant, from the following data: the radius of the Earth is about 6 400 km, the average density of rocks is about 5.50 g/cm3, and g = 9.80 m/s2 near the surface of the Earth. What value did Newton obtain for G?

Did you know?

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

Only one in 10 cancer deaths is caused by the primary tumor. The vast majority of cancer mortality is caused by cells breaking away from the main tumor and metastasizing to other parts of the body, such as the brain, bones, or liver.

Did you know?

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

Did you know?

Children of people with alcoholism are more inclined to drink alcohol or use hard drugs. In fact, they are 400 times more likely to use hard drugs than those who do not have a family history of alcohol addiction.
