Assuming that the inclination of the plane of the planetary orbit is not known, what would be the uncertainty involved in this case? and where this uncertainty could be reduced and briefly

explain how this could be achieved?

Expert Solution

The uncertainty parameter U is a parameter introduced by the Minor Planet Center (MPC) to quantify concisely the uncertainty of a perturbed orbital solution for a minor planet. The parameter is a logarithmic scale from 0 to 9 that measures the anticipated longitudinal uncertainty in the minor planet's mean anomaly after 10 years. The uncertainty parameter is also known as condition code in JPL's Small-Body Database Browser. The U value should not be used as a predictor for the uncertainty in the future motion of near-Earth objects

A hollow sphere is released from the top of an inclined plane of inclination theta. (a) What should be the minimum coefficient of friction between the plane and the sphere to prevent it from sliding? (b) Find the kinetic energy of the sphere as it moves down a length l on the incline if the friction coefficient is half the value calculated in part (a). Please show all steps

A 4.00-kg block rests on an inclined plane that has an inclination angle of 31.3o. A string attached to this block, goes uphill and over a frictionless pulley, and then is attached to a hanging block of mass M. The inclined plane has coefficients of friction μs = 0.22 and μk = 0.13. Draw a real world picture of this scenario. Draw the free body diagrams for each of the blocks. Show how to determine the mass M that will...

In the inner solar system, (inside of Mars' orbit) a reasonable characteristic temperature for planetary atmospheres is 200K. suppose a certain molecule has two levels energies differ by amount corresponding to the maximum frequency at this temperature. a.) what is this maximum frequency and the corresponding energy of this transition? b) By what factor does the rate of transitions between the levels of our molecule differ from the rate of spontaneous transition from the upper to lower level?

What factors affect the speed of a satellite in circular orbit around Earth. And, how would you calculate that speed? A hollow hoop and a solid disk are released from rest at the top of an incline plane that has friction. Which will reach the bottom of the hill first and why? What is impulse and how does it relate to the average force applied to an object during a collision? Include one physical example in your explanation.

What would be its initial acceleration assuming it was the same size as on Mars

It has been proposed that we could explore Mars using inflated balloons to hover just above the surface. The buoyancy of the atmosphere would keep the balloon aloft. The density of the Martian atmosphere is 0.0154 (although this varies with temperature). Suppose we construct these balloons of a thin but tough plastic having a density such that each square meter has a mass of 4.60 . We inflate them with a very light gas whose mass we can neglect. So...
