Miniature black holes.Left over from the big-bang beginningof the universe, tiny black holes might still wander through the universe. If one with a mass of11011kg(and a radius of only11016m) reached Earth, at what distance from your headwould its gravitational pull on you match that of Earth鈥檚?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The distance at which the gravitational pull on you matches that of the Earth is0.8鈥刴 .

Step by step solution

01

The given data

i) Mass of a black hole,mb=11011鈥刱驳

ii) Radius of black holerbp=11016鈥刴

iii) Radius of Earth,rep=6.37106鈥刴

iv) Mass of Earth,me=5.981024鈥刱驳

02

Understanding the concept of Newton’s law of gravitation 

This problem is based on Newton鈥檚 law of gravitation. According to Newton鈥檚 law of gravitation, the force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. By balancing both forces, we can find the unknown distance between the black hole and the person.

Formula:

Force of gravitation, F=Gm1m2r2 鈥(颈)

03

Calculating the required gravitational pull to match that of Earth’s

Using equation (i), Force between Earth & Person can be given as:

Fep=Gmemprep2

Using equation (i), Force between Black hole& Person can be given as:

Fbp=Gmbmprbp2

If these two forces are equal, then

Fep=FbpGmemprep2=Gmbmprbp2

Hence,

rbp2rep2=mbmerbp26.37106m2=11011kg5.981024kgrbp=6.37106鈥刴211011kg5.981024鈥刱驳=0.824m0.8鈥刴

The distance at which the gravitational pull match that to the Earth鈥檚 is .0.8鈥刴

Hunting a black hole.Observations of the light from a certain star indicate that it is part of a binary (two-star) system. This visible star has orbital speedv=270km/s, orbital periodT=1.70days, and approximate massm1=6Ms, whereMs is the Sun鈥檚 mass,1.991030kg. Assume that the visible star and its companion star, which is dark and unseen, are both in circular orbits (Fig. 13-47). What integer multiple ofMs gives the approximate massm2of the dark star?

Question: The radius Rh of a black hole is the radius of a mathematical sphere, called the event horizon that is centered on the black hole. Information from events inside the event horizon cannot reach the outside world. According to Einstein鈥檚 general theory of relativity,Rh=2GM/c2 , where Mis the mass of the black hole and cis the speed of light.

Suppose that you wish to study a black hole near it, at a radial distance of 50Rh. However, you do not want the difference in gravitational acceleration between your feet and your head to exceed 10 m/s2 when you are feet down (or head down) toward the black hole. (a) As a multiple of our Sun鈥檚 mass Ms , approximately what is the limit to the mass of the black hole you can tolerate at the given radial distance? (You need to estimate your height.) (b) Is the limit an upper limit (you can tolerate smaller masses) or a lower limit (you can tolerate larger masses)?

Question: A very early, simple satellite consisted of an inflated spherical aluminum balloon 30m in diameter and of mass 20 kg . Suppose a meteor having a mass of 7.0 kg passes within3.0 mof the surface of the satellite. What is the magnitude of the gravitational force on the meteor from the satellite at the closest approach?

What are (a) the speed and (b) the period of a220kgsatellite in an approximately circular orbit 640kmabove the surface of Earth? Suppose the satellite loses mechanical energy at the average rate of 1.4105Jper orbital revolution. Adopting the reasonable approximation that the satellite鈥檚 orbit becomes a 鈥渃ircle of slowly diminishing radius,鈥 determine the satellite鈥檚

(c) altitude,(d) speed, and(e) period at the end of its 1500th revolution.

(f) What is the magnitude of the average retarding force on the satellite? Is angular momentum around Earth鈥檚 center conserved for (g) the satellite and(h) the satellite鈥揈arth system (assuming that system is isolated)?

The Martian satellite Phobos travels in an approximately circular orbit of radius 9.4106mwith a period of7h39min .Calculate the mass of Mars from this information.
