8. Centripetal Forces & Gravitation / Kepler's First Law / Problem 4
NASA's TESS found in 2020 an unusual gas giant exoplanet, TOI-2109 b, that orbit an F-type star. TOI-2109 b needs 16 hours, the shortest ever measured for a gas giant exoplanet, to complete one orbit around its parent star. TOI-2109 b mean distance from its star is 2.67 × 106 km. How fast, in Km/s, is this planet moving?
