An unknown planet (mass is equal to 5.41 x 1013 kg) is orbiting around the sun (mass of the sun is equal to 6.623703×1035kg). Knowing that the gravitational force between the unknown planet and the sun is (8.75 x 104)N, is the unknown planet nearer or farther to the sun compared to earth? (earth's distance to sun is 1 AU) Express your answer in terms of astronomical units or AU (1AU = 1.496 x 108 km). Assuming that the sun is fixated at a center point, calculate the area (in of the unknown planet's orbit (assume that the orbit is circle).

Earth's orbit is (on average) 1 Astronomical Unit from the Sun. For reference, 1 Astronomical Unit is about 93 million miles. Jupiter's orbit is about 5 Astronomical Units from the Sun. Suppose that the gravitational force between the Earth and the Sun is equal to 50,000 N (it's way more than that but we are just pretending here). If we move Earth to Jupiter's orbit, what will be the new value of the gravitational force between the Earth and the Sun? Remember to include units of force (Newtons or N) in your answer.
Asteroid Toutatis passed near Earth in 2006 at four times the distance to our Moon. This was the closest approach we will have until 2060. If it has mass of 4.1 x 1013 kg, what force did it exert on Earth at its closest approach? Use 384400 km for the distance between the earth and the moon, and 5.972 1024 kg for the mass of the earth.

A solar sailplane is going from Earth to Mars. Its sail is oriented to give a solar radiation force of 8,610 N. The gravitational force due to the Sun is 178 N and the gravitational force due to the Earth is 1,270 N. All forces are in the plane formed by Earth, Sun, and sailplane. The mass of the sailplane is 12,900 kg.
