- Multiple Choice
A survey drone has just completed a scan at x,y coordinates (57m, 8m) at t=0. It needs to return to a lab located at (-115, 72) m. If its initial velocity is 16m/s in the +y-direction, and it has only 18s of battery life remaining, what constant acceleration (magnitude and direction) does it need to reach the lab?

- Textbook QuestionA 4.0 x 10^10 kg asteroid is heading directly toward the center of the earth at a steady 20 km/s. To save the planet, astronauts strap a giant rocket to the asteroid perpendicular to its direction of travel. The rocket generates 5.0 x 10^9 N of thrust. The rocket is fired when the asteroid is 4.0 x 10^6 km away from earth. You can ignore the earth's gravitational force on the asteroid and their rotation about the sun.(b) The radius of the earth is 6400 km. By what minimum angle must the asteroid be deflected to just miss the earth?474views1rank
