P.2. (3 pts) A spacecraft in has a length of 100 m, and mass of 1050 kg (including the occupants). It has strayed too close to a black hole with a mass 96 times that of the Sun. The nose of the spacecraft points toward the black hole, and the distance between the nose and the center of the black hole is 10.0 km. a) Determine the total force on the spacecraft. b) Determine the difference between the gravitational field at the location of the nose on the ship and at the location of the rear of the ship? This difference in acceleration grows rapidly as the ship approaches the black hole; It puts the body of the ship under extreme tension and eventually tears it apart. Black hole 100m
