a) By examining the effective potential energy (8.32) find the radius at which a planet (or comet) with angular momentum can orbit the sun in a circular orbit with fixed radius. [Look at dUeff I dr 1 (b) Show that this circular orbit is stable, in the sense that a small radial nudge will cause only s

A medium-sized jet has a 3.8-m-diameter fuselage and a loaded mass of 85,000 kg. The drag on an airplane is primarily due to the cylindrical fuselage, and aerodynamic shaping gives it a drag coefficient of 0.37. How much thrust must the jet's engines provide to cruise at 230 m/s at an altitude where
