One model for a certain planet has a core of radius R and mass M surrounded by an outer shell of inner radius R, outer radius 2R, and mass 4M. If M= 4.1 * 1024 kg and R = 6.0 *106 m, what is the gravitational acceleration of a particle at points (a) R and (b) 3R from the center of the planet?
A satellite is in elliptical orbit with a period of 8.00 * 10^4 s about a planet of mass 7.00 * 1024 kg. At aphelion, at radius 4.5 * 10^7 m, the satellite’s angular speed is 7.158 * 10-5 rad/s.What is its angular speed at perihelion?
A satellite is in an elliptical orbit, with a perigee of 2.0 earth radii and an apogee of 6.6 earth radii.
