A deep-space satellite is sent to orbit a distant planet with unknown mass. On arrival, the satellite begins its orbit and measures a gravitational pull from the
planet of 620 N. If the satellite has a mass of 450 kg and orbits the planet at a
radius of 4.0 x 10^6m, what is the approximate mass of the planet?(recall that G=6.7x10^-11 N•m2/kg^2.)

The mass of the planet is .

Explanation:

Given that,

The gravitational pull on the planet is 620 N

Mass of a satellite is, m₁ = 450 kg

Radius of a planet is

We need to find the mass of the planet. Gravitational force is given by :

is the mass of the planet

So, the mass of the planet is .

the answer is f1 and d2 because if you put equal force on those two points the beam would balance trust me on this
