9.] [Challenging] Consider a hypothetical dense astronomical object with a mass of 2 X 103kg [about the mass of the sun], and a radius of 1.4 X 10mm. Assuming you could stand on the surface of this object, if you fired a gun straight into the air, how high above the surface would the bullet go before turning around? The mass ofa bullet is 5.0g and its speed is 800 rnfs when it leaves the gun. Ignore any frictional or drag forces on the bullet
