hey, i am really stuck on this problem and i was wondering if anyone could help me...
The planet Mercury orbits the Sun at a mean distance of 5.80X10^7 km.
a) calculate the strength of the Sun's gravity field (g) at Mercury's mean distance.
b) Calculate Mercury's orbital speed in m/s and in km/h.
Any assistance on the problem would be greatly appreciated!
