1. A different planet has a mass of 7.71 x 1023 kg, and the gravitational field strength on the planet surface is 7.50 N/kg. a) An object is dropped from a height of 2.49 m above the surface of this planet. Assuming no air resistance, determine the time required for it to hit the ground. b) Determine the radius of the planet. c) Using the principles of physics and force diagram analysis, determine the orbital speed of a satellite that is located a distance of 8800 km from the center of the planet. 1.
