A. Yes I solved those with some help from a tutor, but didn't get to the rest of this question because his office hours ended. B. I used escape velocity=√(2GM/R) to get 3.26*10^-7. I used G=6.67*10^-11, M=1.277*10^14. I wasn't using this previously, because I miscalculated the mass. So, thank...

A. Correct answer is radius = 1770m, acceleration = 2.73*10^-3m/s. B. I don't know how to approach this problem. I don't know if I should start with forces, energy, or basic kinematics.

Both myself and my TA gave up, but we found acceleration of the system 9g - 4gsin(30) = 13a a=5.27m/s^2
