a) Find the mass of the planet mp in terms of vi t, r, and any necessary constants. b) You decide to orbit the planet in your spacecraft at a distance R above the surface of the planet. Find the time required to complete one orbit in terms of R, r, Vi, t, and any necessary constants. c) Find the escape velocity ve– the initial velocity necessary for an object to barely escape the gravitational pull of the planet. Express your answer in terms of vi, r, t, and any necessary constants.

Suppose you can communicate with the inhabitants of a planet in another solar system. They tell you that on their planet, whose diameter and mass are 5.0103km and 3.61023kg , respectively, the record for the high jump is 2.0 m. Given that this record is close to 2.4 m on Earth, what would you conclude about your extraterrestrial friends’ jumping ability?

Hi there! :) It's sorta a lenghty question, Once the first stage of a rocket burns out, it separates and falls back to Earth. Before the second stage starts burning, the rocket slows down at a rate of 13 m/s2 [DOWN] for a short time. If the rocket slows from 1200 m/s [up] over a period of 4.8 seconds, what is the speed of the rocket after this deceleration? I've attatched a photo here that goes with the question :) Thanks so much!
