The planet Jupiter of mass 2x10^27 kg revolves round the sun of mass 2x10^30 kg in a circular orbit of radius 7.8x10^11 m ,Calculate the gravitational force and orbit speed of Jupiter
i've calculated the gravitational force its coming F=4.38x10^23
but what about orbit speed of jupiter ??
oh its circular
root mew over radius
\[V \approx \sqrt{\frac{ \mu }{ r }}\]
Sorry mew is just the gravitational constant 6.67 x10^-11 multiplied by the mass of whatevers curving it
the answer given in my book is 1.3077x10^4 m/s
the formula is given wrong answer
i was wrong, sorry, orbits are elliptical in most cases, you take the formula from the first eqation, equate it with kinetic energy, as Jupiter is a huge classical body, and rearrange for V
well because Jupiter is non-relativistic
rr \[1/2mv^2 = Gmm/r^2 \]
x 2, /m, root
1/2 mv^2 = 4.38x10^23
1/2*(2x10^27)*v^2 = 4.38x10^23
(1x10^27)v^2=4.38x10^23
v^2=4.38x10^-4
v=0.02092 m/s
lol
the answer is wrong again .... the real one is 1.3077x10^4
the first formula i gave you is correct
\[V = \sqrt{\frac{ 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \times 2\times10^{30}) }{ 7.8 \times 10^{11}}\]
That hasnt converted the LaTex on my screen, do you understand?
i cannot see what have u've posted
use the first formula, but the big M is the dominant sphere of influence, namely The Sun.
mew = G times M
The gravitation force from the sun to jupiter is the centripetal force.\[4,38 10^{23}=\frac{ m _{jup} }{ R}u ^{2}\]
oh my god of course
derivation is right now, thanks
