Step by step solution

01

Identification of the given data

The given data is listed below as,

∘The angle between the planet’s gravitational force and momentum is,θ=60°

∘The magnitude of the planet’s initial momentum is, pi=3.1×1029kg.m/s

∘The magnitude of the planet’s gravitational force is F→=1.8×1023N

02

Significance of the parallel force

The parallel force acts in the opposite or same direction at the different points of a particular object.

The equation of the parallel component of the force is expressed as-

F∥→=F→cosθp....1

Here, F∥is the parallel force,F→ is the absolute value of the gravitational force, pis the unit vector and θis the angle between the momentum and gravitational force

03

Determination of the parallel component of the force on the planet

(a) For,F→=1.8×1023Nand θ=0in equation (1).

F∥=1.8×1023N×cos0°p=1.8×1023Np

Thus, the parallel component of the force on the planet by the star is role="math" localid="1654016428235" (1.8×1023N)p

In each of the following cases identify all objects in the surroundings that exert forces on the system, and draw a free-body diagram for the system. Assume that air resistance is negligible. (a) You hit a baseball with a bat. Choose the baseball as the system, and consider the instant of contact with the bat. (b) You are playing with a yo-yo. Choose the yo-yo as the system. As the yo-yo moves downward, you pull up on the string.

A child of mass 26kg swings at the end of an elastic cord. At the bottom of the swing, the child's velocity is horizontal, and the speed is 12m/sAt this instant the cord is 4.30mlong.

(a) At this instant, what is the parallel component of the rate of change of the child's momentum?

(b) At this instant, what is the perpendicular component of the rate of change of the child's momentum?

(c) At this instant, what is the net force acting on the child?

(d) What is the magnitude of the force that the elastic cord exerts on the child? (It helps to draw a diagram of the forces.)

(e) The relaxed length of the elastic cord is 4.22m. What is the stiffness of the cord?

A ball of unknown mass mis attached to a spring. In outer space, far from other objects, you hold the other end of the spring and swing the ball around in a circle of radius 1.5 mat constant speed.

(a) You time the motion and observe that going around 10times takes 6.88 s. What is the speed of the ball?

(b) Is the momentum of the ball changing or not? How can you tell?

(c) If the momentum is changing, what interaction is causing it to change? If the momentum is not changing, why isn't it?

(d) The relaxed length of the spring is 1.2m, and its stiffness is 1000 N/m. While you are swinging the ball, since the radius of the circle is 1.5m, the length of the spring is also 1.5m.What is the magnitude of the force that the spring exerts on the ball?

(e) What is the mass mof the ball?
