Ateam of astronauts is on a mission to land on and explore a large asteroid. in addition to collecting samples and performing experiments, one of their tasks is to demonstrate the concept of the escape speed by throwing rocks straight up at various initial speeds. with what minimum initial speed vesc will the rocks need to be thrown in order for them never to "fall" back to the asteroid? assume that the asteroid is approximately spherical, with an average density p 3.84 x108 g/m3 and volume v 2.17 x 1012 m3 recall that the universal gravitational constant is g 6.67 x 10-11 n m2/kg2

The bar of prob. 5/82 is repeated here. the ends of the 0.4-m bar remain in contact with their re- spective support surfaces. end b has a velocity of 0.5 m/s and an acceleration of 0.3 m/s2 in the di- rections shown. determine the angular accelera- tion of the bar and the acceleration of end a.
