Assume the earth's mass is 85.47 x 1025 kg, and radius is 51.93 x 103 miles, what would be the gravitational acceleration on such an planet in unit of m/s2? Use G=6.67x 10 -11 Nm2/kg2.
Let’s imagine that you have an idea for an experiment to fly on NASA’s “Vomit Comet.” (What’s special about this plane? It flies in parabolic paths (aka freefall) which result in near weightlessness. This means that you can ignore the effects of gravity when plan your experiment.) You want to mimic the orbital motion of the planets but by using electrostatic force rather than gravitational. And, instead of a planet, you will be orbiting a droplet of water that is 0.5mm in radius and has an deficit of 1.5 x 106 electrons. The droplet is to orbit around a small (1cm radius) sphere. If you want the droplet to move with an orbital radius of 14cm and period of one minute, what should the charge be on the central sphere? BTW The density of water is 997 kg/m3.

Somewhere far, far away on the other side of our galaxy, there is a new protoplanetary disk where two baby planetesimals are growing. Planetesimal A is currently 5x10° kg, and Planetesimal B is 2x105 kg. If these two planetesimals are 100 meters apart, what is the gravitational force between them? (Hint: the Universal Gravitational Constant (G) is 6.67x10-11 Nm²/kg²) Gm,m2 FG r2 Planetesimal A Planetesimal B 5 x 10°kg 2 x 105kg 100 meters
Gravitational force is F = Gm1m2/r². Set G = 1 and m1 = 1, where m2 will be a planet with 1800 times Earth's mass (so m2 = 1800) and 30 times Earth's radius (so r = 30). What will F be?
