The “mean” orbital radius listed for astronomical objects orbiting the Sun is typically not an integrated average but is calculated such that it gives the correct period when applied to the equation for circular orbits. Given that, what is the mean orbital radius in terms of aphelion and perihelion?
We are presented with a particle of mass (m = 4.56 kg) which is in uniform circular motion going around a fixed point O. It had a radius of orbit (r = 3.63 m) and it experiences a net force of magnitude F = Br toward the fixed point O, where B = 2.75 Nm. What is the period of the particles orbit?

The radius of the earth is R. At what distance above the earth's surface, in terms of R , is the acceleration due to gravity = 2.5 m/s2 ? At approximately (answer) × R above the earth’s surface.
A space explorer lands on a certain planet and does an experiment to measure the local gravity. She launches an object straight upward and observes that it takes a total time T to return to the launch point and attains a maximum height h above the launch point. Derive an expression forthe value of g on this planet in terms of h and T and any appropriate constants.
For earth, let g and R be the acceleration due to gravity and the radius, respectively. If another Planet B has one-half the acceleration due to gravity of the earth but four times its radius, then the velocity of escape of that same object placed on Planet B is twice that on earth.True or False?
The weight of a particle varies with altitude such that ? = m(gro2)/r2, where ?0 is the radius of the earth and ? is the distance from the particle to the earth’s center.
