2. What is the escape speed from m? a planet of mass M and radius R if M-3.2x 1023 kg and R 2.4 x 100 3. Two satellites are placed in geosynchronous orbits, orbits with a period of 24 hours, where each satellite hovers over a spot on the Earth's equator. Satellite B has three times the mass of satellite A. Wh is the relationship between the magnitudes of the gravitational forces FA and FB of the Earth on the...

The escape speed from an object is v2 = 2GM/R, where M is the mass of the object, R is the object's starting radius, and G is the gravitational constant 6.67 × 10-11 m3 kg-1 s-2. What is the approximate escape speed, in km/s, from the Solar System starting from an orbit at 0.7 AU? In this case, the mass of the Sun, 2e+30 kg, can be used as the mass of the Solar system.
Find the escape speed from a planet with a mass of 3×10^24 kg and a diameter of 2×10^6 m. Use 2⁄3×10^-10 N·m2/kg2 for the gravitational constant.
The escape speed from Planet X is 14000 m/s. Planet Y has the
sameradius as Planet X but is twice as dense.
What is the escape speed from Planet Y?
A dwarf planet with mass M = 2.43 x 1016 kg and radius R = 2360 km is crashed into by a large comet. The dwarf planet initially has a day with length 12 hours. The comet hits the planet at its equator and at an angle of 0 = 80° with the radius of the planet, as shown in the view of the planet looking above from the North Pole. The speed of the comet is V comet =...
