Question

A 10,000kg space ship is orbiting the moon with a radius of 25km from the ship to the center of the moon. It’s tangential speed is 125m/s. What is the ships centripetal acceleration?

Is this the correct set-up for this problem.

ac=10,000kg(125m/s)2/25,000m

True or False?

    Answer:

    False

    Explanation:

    ac = v^2/r

    acceleration is not dependent on the mass of the orbiting object.
