On December 25, 2004, the Huygens probe separated from the Cassini spacecraft orbiting Saturn and began a 22 day journey to Saturn’s moon Titan, on whose surface it landed. Besides the data in Appendix F, it is useful to know that Titan is 1.22 * 10^6 km from the center of Saturn and has a mass of 1.35 * 10^23 kg and a diameter of 5150 km. At what distance from Titan should the gravitational pull of Titan the gravitational pull of Saturn?

Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.
