Newtons Law of Gravitation states that two bodies with masses m1 and m2 attract each other with a force F. where r is the distance between the bodies and G is the gravitational constant, Use Newton's Law of Gravitation to compute the work W required to launch a 1700 kg satellite vertically to an orbit 900 km high. You may assume that the earth's mass is 5.98✕1024 kg and is concentrated at its center. Take the radius of the earth to be 6.37✕106 m and G = 6.67✕10-11 Nm2/kg2.

A basket of flowers of mass 3 kg is placed on a flat grassy slope that makes an angle θ with the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the basket and the slope is 0.45 and the basket is on the point of slipping down the slope. Model the basket of flowers as a particle and the grassy slope as a plane. Take the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity, g, to be 9.8 m s−2 Express the forces in component form, in terms of θ and unknown magnitudes where appropriate. Write down the equilibrium condition for the basket and hence show that tan θ = 0.45. Determine the angle, in degrees, that the slope makes with the horizontal.
