What is the escape velocity is km/s from Jupiters exosphere, which begins about 993 km above the surface ? Assume the Gravitational constant is G= 6.67 x10-11m3 kg-1s-2, and that's Jupiter has a mass of 1.8999999999999998e+27kg and a radius of 68.0 x103km
The mass of the planet is approximately 74.8 times the mass of Jupiter. Calculate the average density of the planet. Give your answer in grams per cubic centimeter.
Calculate the pressure p of the Venus atmosphere (it consists of CO2 at 477oC) at the height of 1 km from the planet surface, where p0=9.3 MPa. The planet mass is 4.9x1024 kg, its radius is 6050 km
