A satellite is spinning at 6.0 rev/s. The satellite consists of a main body in the shape of a sphere of radius 2.0 m and mass 10,000 kg, and two antennas projecting out from the center of mass of the main body that can be approximated with rods of length 3.0 m each and mass 10 kg. The antenna’s lie in the plane of rotation. What is the angular momentum of the satellite?
A bird flies overhead from where you stand at an altitude of 300.0 m and at a speed horizontal to the ground of 20.0 m/s. The bird has a mass of 2.0 kg. The radius vector to the bird makes an angle with respect to the ground. The radius vector to the bird and its momentum vector lie in the xy-plane. What is the bird’s angular momentum about the point where you are standing?

Two stars of masses M and m, separated by a distance d, revolve in circular orbits about their center of mass (Fig. P11.50). Show that each star has a period given by T2=42d3G(M+m) Proceed as follows: Apply Newtons second law to each star. Note that the center-of-mass condition requires that Mr2 = mr1, where r1 + r2 = d.

The core of a star collapses during a supernova, forming a neutron star. Angular momentum of the core is conserved, and so the neutron star spins rapidly. If the initial core radius is 5.0 X 105 km and it collapses to 10.0 km, find the neutron star’s angular velocity in revolutions per second, given the core’s angular velocity was originally 1 revolution per 30.0 days.
Consider the following mass distribution: 3 kg at (4 m, −4 m), 2.8 kg at (0 m, 4.2 m), and 3.7kg at(3.7m, 0m). We need to place a fourth mass of 4.8 kg so that the center of gravity of the four-mass arrangement will be at (0, 0). a) Find the x coordinate of such a point in m. b) Find the y coordinate of such a point in m.
Please don't provide handwritten solution. Three identical full spheres of mass 3.1kg and Radius R=2.9m are welded together in such a way that the centres of each of them are at (R,0,0), (3R,0,0) and (5R,0,0). The whole system rotates in +XY plane about the axis parallel to z axis and passing through point (6R,0,0). Find the moment of inertia of the whole system. State your answer to the nearest tenth of kgm2.
The Earth is 1.5 × 1011 m from the Sun and takes a year to make one complete orbit. It rotates on its own axis once per day. It can be treated approximately as a uniform-density sphere of mass 6 × 1024 kg and radius 6.4 × 106 m (actually, its center has higher density than the rest of the planet, and the Earth bulges out a bit at the equator). Using this crude approximation, calculate the following. What is the velocity center of mass?
A particle of mass m is under the central force created by the potential energy U(r)=A*r (A>0). The angular momentum of the particle is L (L is not equal to zero). For E=(4/3)E0, find the minimum radial kinetic energy in terms of (r0 and E0). A hint and formula are given in the figure.If K.E(r) is maximum then K.E(t) is minimum.If K.E(t) is maximum then K.E(r) is minimum.
