1. There is a graph that shows T^2 against r^3, the question askes it to calculate the planets mass, what do I do with the graph?
2. Question : All vector fields have an associated scalar potential. For this question assume earth has a radius of 6400km and a mass of 6x10^24 kg.
Given the gravitational potential Vg is 63 MJ kg^-1 at earths surface calculate Vg at an altitude equal to earths radius?
Calculate the gravitational potential energy of a 10kg ball at an altitude equal to three times earths radius?
Any one who can help me with how I work any of these out, thank you in advanced
