Given:
. . .a<sub>Charon</sub> = 19,640 km
. . .P<sub>Charon</sub> = 6.387217
. . .K = 1.325 × 10<sup>-14</sup> M day<sup>2</sup>/km<sup>3</sup>
(Note: To the right of the M is a little circle with a plus sign in it.)
Calculate the mass of Pluto, which Charon orbits around, using the formula:
. . .M = Ka<sup>3</sup> / P<sup>2</sup>
Does anyone have a clue how to do this problem?
