- A new mystery planet is detected around our Sun. We measure its position relative to the Sun to be 2 AU at perihelion and 6 AU at aphelion. What is the semimajor axis of this planet's orbit (in AU)? With that information, what is the orbital period of that planet (in years)? If this planet has the same mass as Earth, how does the average force of gravity on the planet by the Sun compare with the average force of gravity on the Earth by the Sun? Please give a numerical ratio of the forces. (Hint: You can take the semimajor axis to represent the average position of the planets) 6:this is all one question with multiples steps.

- Kepler's 1st law says that our Solar System's planets orbit in ellipses around the Sun where the closest distance to the Sun is called perihelion. Suppose I tell you that there is a planet with a perihelion distance of 2 AU and a semi-major axis of 1.5 AU. Does this make physical sense? Explain why or why not.The figure below is a scaled representation of a planet's orbit with a semimajor axis of 1.598 AU. (Use the exact values you enter in previous answer(s) to make later calculation(s).) (a) Find the ratio of the aphelion-to-perihelion distance. TA (b) Find the perihelion and aphelion distances in astronomical units. AU AU (c) Find the distance the Sun is from the center of the orbit.

- What would be the angular diameter (in arc seconds) of a planet with diameter 8.5 x 105 km and orbital distance from it's star of 175 x 108 km as seen from a planet with. orbital distance from the same star of 70 x 107 km as seen from their closest approach?In a distant star system there are many inhabitable planets. One of these planets is named Qomar. Qomar is 3.2 AU's from its star and takes 6.5 Earth years to go around its star once. There is another planet in the same star system called Ferenginar. Ferenginar is 0.9 AUs from the star. What is the length of a Ferengi year (on Ferenginar) in terms of Earth years?A planet's speed in orbit is given by V = (30 km/s)[(2/r)-(1/a)]0.5 where V is the planet's velocity, r is the distance in AU's from the Sun at that instant, and a is the semimajor axis of its orbit. Calculate the Earth's velocity in its orbit (assume it is circular): What is the velocity of Mars at a distance of 1.41 AU from the Sun? What is the spacecraft's velocity when it is 1 AU from the Sun (after launch from the Earth)? What additional velocity does the launch burn have to give to the spacecraft? (i.e. What is the difference between the Earth's velocity and the velocity the spacecraft needs to have?) How fast will the spacecraft be traveling when it reaches Mars? Does the spacecraft need to gain or lose velocity to go into the same orbit as Mars?
