them!? The average distance of the planet Mercury from the sun is 0.39 times the average distance of the earth from the sun. How long is a year on Mercury in units of earth years?
Find the resultant force on (a) the mass m1 = 0.182 kg and (b) the mass m2 = 0.101 kg in the figure below (the masses are isolated from the earth).
The gravitational constant would be easy to measure if ordinary matter were more dense. What would the density of a sphere of radius 1.05 m have to be in order to produce a gravitational acceleration of 1.09 m/s2 at the surface of the sphere?
Find the speed of a satellite moving in a circular orbit just above the surface of Jupiter. Jupiter has a radius of 1.90 1027 m and a mass of 1.90 1027 kg.
Find the satellite's orbital period.
