Two comets are moving directly towards each other. When they collide, comet A has three times the speed and one-third the mass of comet B.
Which of the following best describes the forces the comets exert on each other during the collision?

Choose 1
The forces exerted by each comet on the other are the same because interacting objects cannot
exert forces of different magnitude on each other.
The force exerted by comet A on comet B will be three times as great as the force exerted by comet
Bon comet A because comet A has triple the speed of comet B.
The force exerted by comet A on comet B will be one third the force exerted by comet B on comet
A because comet A has one third the mass of comet B.

Your starship, the aimless wanderer, lands on the mysterious planet mongo. as chief scientist-engineer, you make the following measurements: a 2.50-kg stone thrown upward from the ground at 14.0 m/s returns to the ground in 5.70 s ; the circumference of mongo at the equator is 2.20×10^5 km ; and there is no appreciable atmosphere on mongo. (a) the starship commander, captain confusion, asks for the following information: what is the mass of mongo? (b) if the aimless wanderer goes into a circular orbit 2.20×10^4 km above the surface of mongo, how many hours will it take the ship to complete one orbit? (c) an unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 44.0 km . to the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 23.0 m/s . if nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?
