Statistical Breakdown of Exam 2 26% Energy � 17% Collisions (+Momentum) � 46% Rotational

Statistical Breakdown of Exam 2 26% Energy � 17% Collisions (+Momentum) � 46% Rotational (Center of mass, moment of inertia, statics, angular momentum, torque) � 10% Gravitational � Let’s put some analogies to work: Not knowing gravitation would be like losing 3 fingers Not knowing rotational is like losing a heart or both lungs

Examples: A planet is in a circular orbit around a star. The mass of the star is 5 * 1028 kg. If the period of the planet’s orbit is 1. 00 * 105 s, then the orbital radius of the planet around the star is ____ m. The centers of two small uniform spherical bodies are separated by a distance d and the magnitude of the attractive gravitational force of one on the other is F. If the distance between the centers of the bodies decreases to d/2, the magnitude of the force of one on the other becomes ____.
