Answers for Chapter9_ 763 8.25 (a) ry (b) You can see from the picture on the left that if £ = —0.1, the inner turning point is at about Finn = 0.7. If we use this as a starting value for any equation-solving program (such as Mathematica’s FindRoot), we find that this root of the equation Ugq(r) = —0.1 is actually rin = 0.6671. (©) Obviously the orbit shown on the right has not closed after 3.5 revolutions, and it clearly won’t close for a long time. (In fact, it never does, but this is harder to prove.) 8.27 c= 8.87 x 107km, € = 0.753, § = 1.72 rad, 8.29 The new orbit would be a parabola, tangent to the old circular orbit at the point at which the great disappearance occurred. The earth would be just not bound. 8.31 The sketch shows the path of the relative position r = (x, y), that is, the orbit of particle 1 as seen from particle 2. ; 8.35 First thrust factor = /2/5; second = /378.

As seen from the merry-go- round, its initial acceleration is radially outward; as it speeds up, it curves to its right and spirals outward from the center. (b) As seen from the ground, it remains stationary. As seen from the merry-go-round, it moves in a clockwise circle centered on the axis of the merry-go-round. 9.21 This is what happens in Problem 9.24(d). 9.25 Angle = 0.13° to left. 9.27 East a a (a) View from earth (b) View from space 9.29 : up & down down only Bo (east) 9.31 v = 0.11 mms. 9.33 Chapter 10 10.3 R = (0,0, H/5). 105 R= (0,0,3R/8) 10.7 (a) V = 27 R\1— cose); (b) R= (0,0, Z) where Z = 2% , 1= 08260, 3 16 1—cosé, 10.9 7 4MR?.Answers for Chapter 10 765 be —a5 =2MR: =2 10.11 (a) L(solid) = FM R's (b) (hollow) = [M7 — 10.13 (a) = J/mgajT; (b) 1 = 1 /(ma). 10.15 w = \/3g(V2 — 1)/2a. 10.17 1,, = }M(a? +b). 10.23 All products of inertia involving z are automatically zero, [,; 10.25 (a) and (b) The inertia tensors Tq, about the CM and L, about A are P+ 0 0 0 +a 0 and 0 0 @+h 1 P4@ +e) —3ab —3ac 3M | ~3ba 4? +a?) —3be_ |. —3ca —3eb 4(a? +b) (0) L = {Mo (4? + c*), —3ab, —3ac). 10.27 (R? + 2h?) 0 0 M 0 (+) 0 |. 0 0 2R? 10.35 (a) 10 0 0 I=ma|0 6 1]. 0 1 6 (b) The principal moments are 4, = 10ma?, 4) = 7ma”, and A; = Sma’.

(e) The larger precession rate is bigger about the CM than about the tip. According to (10.111) the smaller rate is unchanged. (But note that (10.111) is an approximation; if we keep the next term in the approximation, we find that the smaller rate is slightly reduced.}
