2. A newly discovered planet around a nearby star experiences a gravitational force with its star of 2.52 x 1024 N. The planet has an orbital radius of about 3.2 x 1010 m. The mass of the star is 6.1 x 103³⁰ kg (roughly twice the Sun) What is the mass of the planet? What is the g of the planet if the planet is same size as Earth (6.4 x 106 m) How does that planet's a compare to Earth?

A newly discovered planet around a nearby star experiences a gravitational force with its star of \(2.52 \times 10^{24}\) N. The planet has an orbital radius of about \(3.2 \times 10^{10}\) m. The mass of the star is \(6.1 \times 10^{30}\) kg (roughly twice the Sun).

1. **What is the mass of the planet?**

2. **What is the g of the planet if the planet is the same size as Earth (\(6.4 \times 10^6\) m)?**

3. **How does that planet’s g compare to Earth?**
