Let a satellite orbits a planet of mass M at circular orbit of radius R. Find the orbital period T. Express your answer in terms of G, M, R, and π If the mass of the planet is 5.98 x 1024 kg, calculate the ratio of T2 to R3.
A 7.8 ×× 102121 kgkg moon orbits a distant planet in a circular orbit of radius 1.5 ×× 1088 mm. It experiences a 1.1 ×× 101919 NN gravitational pull from the planet. Part A What is the moon's orbital period in earth days?
3. Mars has two moons, Deimos and Phobos, traveling in circular orbits (to a good approximation) Deimos takes 30.3 hours to orbit Mars (i.e. 30.3 hours per full rotation around the planet) and travels with a speed of 1.35 km/s. [16 points] a) What is the radius of Deimos' orbit around Mars? [9] Hint: First find the circumference of Deimos' orbit. Then infer the radius from that.] b) What is the magnitude and direction of Deimos' acceleration? [7]
