Answer:
The answer is "[tex]5.184 \times 10^{23}[/tex] kg"
Explanation:
Given:
[tex]g= 6.003 \ \frac{m}{s^2}\\\\G= 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \ \frac{N - m^2}{kg^2}\\\\M=?\\\\radius= 2,400 \ km\\\\[/tex]
Calculating diameter:
[tex]Diameter =radius \times 2[/tex]
[tex]=24\times 10^5 \times 2\\\\=48 \times 10^5 \ m[/tex]
The formula for mass calculation:
[tex]\to g = G \times \frac{M}{(\frac{d^2}{4})}\\\\\to g=G\times \frac{4M}{d^2}\\\\\to 4M= \frac{g \times d^2}{G} \\\\\to M= \frac{g \times d^2}{4G} \\\\[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{6.003 \times (48 \times 10^{5})^2}{4 \times 6.67 \times 10^{-11}}\\\\=\frac{6.003 \times 2,304 \times 10^{10}}{26.68\times 10^{-11}}\\\\=\frac{13,830.912 \times 10^{10}}{26.68\times 10^{-11}}\\\\=518.4 \times 10^{21}\\\\= 5.184 \times 10^{23}\\\\[/tex]
