The gravity tractor, is a proposed spacecraft that will fly close to an asteroid whose trajectory threatens to impact the Earth. Due to the gravitational attraction between the two objects and a prolonged period of time over which it acts (several years), the asteroid's trajectory is changed slightly, thus hopefully diverting it from impacting the Earth. If the gravity tractor's weight on Earth is 20,000 lbs and it flies with a center of gravity 160ft from the surface of the asteroid, and the asteroid is homogenous pure iron with 1290 ft diameter spherical shape, detirmine the force of mutual attraction. Idealize the gravity tractor to be a particle.

An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 162 ft, then climbs 127 ft at an angle of 31.0° above the horizontal. it then moves 127 ft at an angle of 46.0° below the horizontal. if we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)
