3 Surface of the Earth What is the weight of a 10 kg mass on the surface of the Earth?

4 Satellite What is the weight of a 10 kg mass orbiting at R E above the surface of the Earth?

5 Alien Planet What is the weight of a 10 kg mass on a planet with a mean radius of 5 x 10 5 m and a planetary mass of 4 x 10 22 kg?

6 “Local Gravity” The value of g for a location is often called the local gravity. What is the local gravity on a planet with a mean radius of 5 x 10 5 m and a planetary mass of 4 x 10 22 kg?
