The weight of a man on the surface of asteroid is equal to the gravitational force exerted on the man:
where
G is the gravitational constant
is the mass of the asteroid
m = 100 kg is the mass of the man
r = 2.0 km = 2000 m is the distance of the man from the centre of the asteroid
Substituting, we find
2. 1.7 m/s
In order to stay in orbit just above the surface of the asteroid (so, at a distance r=2000 m from its centre), the gravitational force must be equal to the centripetal force
where v is the minimum speed required to stay in orbit.
Re-arranging the equation and solving for v, we find:
