asap do all steps please An asteroid in our Solar System has an eccentricity of 0.550 and a perihelion (closest to Sun) distance of 0.800 AU (Astronomical Units). a)What is its semimajor axis in AU? b)What is its orbital period in Earth years? (Hint: use the simpler form of Kepler’s law for orbitsaround our Sun. You do not need to know 1AU in m). c)What is the ratio of its maximum to minimum speedduring its orbit, vmax/vmin (3 sig figs)? (Hint: use a conservation law) d)Choose one: The asteroid’s total mechanical energy is: i) positive, ii) zero iii) negative, iv) any of theaboveare possible. e) The Earth’s orbit is very close to circular and draw it as acircle of radius 1AU (OK to trace sometime at least the size of a quarter or draw by hand). Label an “S” where the Sunis. Carefully mark theperihelion of the asteroid to the left of the Sun with a “P” and aphelion with an “A” to the right of the Sunto scale (use your ruler to measure it).

What is the average gravitational force between the moon (MM=7.38 x 1022 kg) and the earth (ME=5.98 x 1024 kg) if the average center-to-center distance of the two is 384,467 km?Solve the problem with GAFSA (Given, Asked, Formula, Solution, and Answer) Format
1. Two masses are attracted by gravitational force of 0.24 N. What will the force of attraction be if the distance btwn the two masses is halved. Can you show me how to solve ? 2. Acceleration of gravity on surface of Jupiter is 25 m/s^2. What is the weight on Jupiter of a woman whose weight on Earth's is 130lb ? Round to four decimal places Can you show me how to solve
An asteroid is discovered in a nearly circular orbit around the Sun, with an orbital radius that is 2.07 times Earth's. What is the asteroid's orbital period ?, its "year," in terms of Earth years? Hint: Kepler's third law relates orbital period to orbital radius. When asked to determine a property of an object in terms of the same property of a different object, construct a ratio.

A geosynchronous orbit is one in which the satellite stays in the same relative position above the earth, as the earth rotates. To do so, the satellite needs to have an orbital period of 1 day. Given that the moon has an orbital period of 27.3 days and a semi-major axis of 384,000 km, determine the radius of a geosynchronous orbit using Kepler's 3rd law. Enter your answer in km.
