If a million asteroids 1-kilometer across were all combined into one object, how big would it be across? (Hint: You can assume that both asteroids and the final object are spherical. The equation for the volume of a sphere is 4/3 pi r^3 where r is the radius.) Express your answer in kilometers to three significant figures.

Calculate the radius ( in km) of Jupiter's Roche limit for satellites with the same density as the planet.
A satellite is in an approximately circular orbit 36,000 kilometers from Earth’s surface. The radius of Earth is about 6400 kilometers. What is the circumference of the satellite’s orbit? Round to the nearest whole kilometer, if necessary.
