Question
help me please? I'm lost...
A small space probe is put into circular orbit about a newly discovered moon of Saturn. The moon's radius is known to be 550km. If the probe orbits at a height of 1500km above the moon's surface and takes 2.0 earth days to make one orbit, determine the moon's mass. consider the total radial distance required to solve this problem.
