newton's law of universal gravitation works well in ordinary situations on earth, but it does not work well

a)
inside the atom, because it is too small.

b)
in large stars, because they are too massive.

c)
in space, because there is no gravity in space.

d)
on the moon, because there is no gravity on the moon.

Your starship, the aimless wanderer, lands on the mysterious planet mongo. as chief scientist-engineer, you make the following measurements: a 2.50-kg stone thrown upward from the ground at 14.0 m/s returns to the ground in 5.70 s ; the circumference of mongo at the equator is 2.20×10^5 km ; and there is no appreciable atmosphere on mongo. (a) the starship commander, captain confusion, asks for the following information: what is the mass of mongo? (b) if the aimless wanderer goes into a circular orbit 2.20×10^4 km above the surface of mongo, how many hours will it take the ship to complete one orbit? (c) an unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 44.0 km . to the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 23.0 m/s . if nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?

What is the orbital period of a spacecraft in a low orbit near the surface of mars? the radius of mars is 3.4×106m.

If an electric circuit is not grounded it is best to reach out and touch it to provide the ground a.true or b.false
