The earth rotates in an orbit of radius R around the sun at a constant speed v = 3×104 m/s. Determine the distance between the center of the earth and the center of the sun. We give the mass of the sun msun = 2.02×1030 kg, the mass of the earth mearth = 6×1024 kg and the gravitational constant G = 6.67×10-11 N.m2.kg-2. (Tick the right answer, 3 pts, 4 minutes)
