Physics

A satellite of mass 2.00 x 104 kg is placed in orbitaround Jupiter. The mass of Jupiter is 1.90 x 1027 kg.The distance between the satellite and the centre of Jupiter is7.24 x 107 m.

  1. Determine the force of gravitational attraction(Fg) between the satellite and Jupiter.
  2. One of the moons of Jupiter is Io. The distance between thecentre of Jupiter and the centre of Io is 4.22 x 108 m.If the force of gravitational attraction between Io and Jupiter is6.35 x 1022 N, what must be the mass of Io?
  3. If the mass of Io were to suddenly double, by what amount wouldthe force of gravitational attraction change? (Do not actuallycalculate the force of attraction; just determine how much more orless the force of gravity would change.)
  4. One of the other moons that orbit Jupiter is Callisto. Itsmass, mC, is 1.08 x 1023 kg. If theforce of gravity between Jupiter and Callisto is 3.87 x1021 N, then what must be the distance between thecentre of Jupiter and the centre of Callisto? (This represents theradius of orbit Ro)
  5. If the distance between (Ro) Jupiter andCallisto doubles, by what amount would the force of gravitationalattraction (Fg) change?
