Identical satellites X and Y of mass m are in circular orbits around a planet of mass M. The radius of the planet is R. Satellite X has an orbital radius of 3R, and satellite Y has an orbital radius of 4R. The kinetic energy of satellite X is Kx.

1) In terms of Kx, the gravitational potential energy of the planet-satellite X system is

(A) -2Kx

(B) -Kx

(C) -Kx/2

(D) Kx/2

Assume you measured the mass of the cart to be (500 ± 1) g and the mass of the additional mass you put on the cart to be (500 ± 1) g as well. since the scale you are using in the lab cannot measure objects heavier than 600g you will have to sum up individual pieces and propagate the error. so what would be the mass and the standard error of the cart and the mass
