The radius of the Earth R_{E} = 6.378 * 10 ^ 6 m and the acceleration due to gravity at its surface is 9.81m / (s ^ 2) Calculate the altitude above the surface of earth in meters , at which the acceleration due to gravity is g= 1.2 m/s^2

The International Space Station (ISS) is a space station orbiting the earth above the ground. If the radius of the earth is 3,958.8 miles, mass of earth is 5.972 x 10 24 kg,  the period of the ISS at the orbit around the earth is 9.16 hours, can you calculate what is the distance from the ISS to the surface of the earth, in unit of miles? Use G=6.674 x 10 -11 Nm2/kg2. Write your answer in pure numbers, for example, 4567.8. Please keep at least on digit after the decimal point.

A sphere of copper has a radius of 50.0 cm and a mass of 4690 kg.  A sphere of unknown metal has a radius of 30.0 cm.  The surfaces of the spheres are 20.0 cm apart.  The force of gravitational attraction between the two spheres is 0.372 mN.  What is the mass of the unknown metal?

Taking the age of Earth to be about 4 ✕ 109 years and assuming its orbital radius of 1.5 ✕ 1011 m has not changed and is circular, calculate the approximate total distance Earth has traveled since its birth (in a frame of reference stationary with respect to the Sun).

The average distance of the earth from the sun is about 1.5 x 108 km (Figure 1). Assume that the earth's orbit around the sun is circular and that the sun is at the origin of your coordinate system. (a) Estimate the speed of the earth as it moves in its orbit around the sun. Express your answer in miles per hour with the appropriate number of significant figures. (b) Estimate the angle between the position vector of the earth now and what it will be in 4 months. (c) Calculate the distance between these two positions.

To complete this exercise, you need to know that the circumference of a circle is proportional to its radius, and that the constant of proportionality is 2π. You do not need to know either the radius of the Moon’s orbit or the radius of Earth. For purposes of this exercise, we assume that the Moon’s orbit around Earth is circular. In one trip around Earth, the Moon travels approximately 2.4 million kilometers. Another satellite orbits Earth (in a circular orbit) at a distance from Earth that is 1/4 that of the Moon. How far does this satellite travel in one trip around Earth? (Use decimal notation. Give your answer to one decimal place.) A rope is tied around the equator of Earth. A second rope circles Earth and is suspended 77 feet above the equator. How much longer is the second rope than the first?

The International Space Station (ISS) is a space station orbiting the earth above the ground. If the radius of the earth is 3,958.8 miles, mass of earth is 5.972 x 10 24 kg,  the period of the ISS at the orbit around the earth is 14.137 hours, can you calculate what is the distance from the ISS to the surface of the earth, in unit of miles? Use G=6.674 x 10 -11 Nm2/kg2. Write your answer in pure numbers, for example, 4567.8. Please keep at least on digit after the decimal point.

A spaceship travels through deep space to a space station and needs to make a heading correction to get around a nebula. The captain orders the ship to travel 3.1 x 106 kilometers before turning 70 ° and to travel 2.5 x 106 kilometers in that direction. If the captain had not ordered a heading correction, what would have been the magnitude (in kilometers) and the direction (in degrees counterclockwise from the + x-axis) (Counter clockwise: counterclockwise) of the trajectory of the spaceship if it had traveled through the nebula?

When a falling meteor is at a distance 3.58times the radius of the Earth above theEarth’s surface, what is its free-fall acceleration? The acceleration of gravity is9.8 m/s squared. , the universal gravitational constant is 6.67259×10−11 N · m2/kg2 and the Earth’sradius is 6.37 × 106 m. Answer in units of m/s 2.
