2. A new Earth-like planet is found orbiting a distant star with a circular orbit. The it takes 1.3 Earth years for the planet to make a full circle around it's star. The star has a radius 5 x 1011m. The altitude of the planet's orbit is 8 x 105 km. Find the mass of the star that the new planet is orbiting.
a planet in an elliptical orbit around a distant star. a periastron (the point closest approach to the star), the planet is rp=4.20 x 10^8km from the star and is moving with the speed of vp=18.5km/s. when the planet is at apastron (the point of greatest distance from the star) it is ra=9,30x10^8 km from the star. how fast is the planet moving at apastron? va=? km/s
A planet orbits a star once every 2.90 x 10's in a nearly circular orbit of radius 1.43 x 1011 m. (a) With respect to the star, determine the angular speed of the planet. rad/s (b) With respect to the star, determine the tangential speed of the planet. m/s (C) With respect to the star, determine the magnitude and direction of the planet's centripetal acceleration. magnitude direction ---Select--- m/s2
Two newly discovered planets follow circular orbits around a star in a distant part of the galaxy. The orbital speeds of the planets are determined to be 45.2 km/s and 55.1 km/s. The slower planet's orbital period is 6.27 years. (a) What is the mass of the star? (b) What is the orbital period of the faster planet, in years?
