You, along with your team of intrepid thieves, have discovered the amazing tiny planet Smurgleflurffersnack. You and your cronies are all aggressive space aliens that enjoy stealing the atmospheres of unsuspecting planets (no one is certain why). You've rented a special Space UHaul for the theft. Your Space UHaul can transport no more than 5 x 1010 kilograms. Any more than that and it will explode. After much data collection you see that the density of the Smurgleflurffersnack's atmosphere is given by: d = 50000 - 0.001 p2 where p is the distance from the planet's center. Did you rent a big enough Space UHaul to steal the entire atmosphere of Smurglefluffersnack??? Hint: You've also measured the radius of Smurglefluffersnack's from its center to its sea level to be a very tiny 100 meters. Use the expression for Smurglefluffersnack's atmospheric density to calculate the total mass of Smurgleflurffersnack's atmosphere from the planet's surface to an elevation of 5000 meters. Then compare this total mass to the maximum capacity of the Space UHaul. Make sure you write a clear, complete, and detailed solution
