Estimate the mass of the planet

Reference no: EM13328991

On a planet in a solar system far from ours, you release a rock from rest at a height of 12.0 m above the surface of the planet and you find that the rock has speed 14.0 rn/s just before it reaches the surface. Air resistance can be neglected. The planet has radius 3.00 x 10^7 m. What is the mass of the planet?
