At an altitude of 160 km above the earth's surface, a 3-kg mass is pushed vertically upward with a velocity of 16,000 km/h. Using the radius of the earth equal to 6357 km, calculate the maximum distance from the earth's surface reached by the mass. Present your answer in km using 4 significant figures.
A new planet is discovered orbiting a distant star. Observations have confirmed that the planet has a circular orbit with a radius of 12 AU and takes 117 days to orbit the star. Determine the mass of the star. State your answer with appropriate mks units. [NOTE: AU ..stands.for...astronomical unit". It is the average distance between Earth & the Sun. 1 AU≈ 1.496 x 1011 m.] Enter a number with units. I be quite large and your calculator will display the answer as a power of 10. If, as an example, your answer was 8.54 x 1056, you would type "8.54e56" into the answer box (remember to state your units with your answer).]
O Jupiter's third-largest natural satellite, lo, follows an orbit with a semimajor axis of 422,000 km (4.22 × 105 km) and a period of 1.77 Earth days (Plo = 1.77 d). To use Kepler's Third Law, we first must convert lo's orbital semimajor axis to astronomical units. One AU equals 150 million km (1 AU = 1.50 x 108 km). Convert lo's a value to AU and record the result. alo = AU
