In this case there is only one force on Uranus (gravity) so that must be the net force. Thus [LaTeX Error: Can't write to directory] [LaTeX Error: Can't write to directory]
Which leads to [LaTeX Error: Can't write to directory]
Now that you have [LaTeX Error: Can't write to directory] the rest is simple. Just find T: [LaTeX Error: Can't write to directory]
Try that on problem 2 and let us know where you are with the other problems.

For #5 [Ta/Tb]^2 = [ra/rb]^3 ??
For #4 find r by adding the height of satellite to earth radius first, then solve for period using your formula for #2&3 ??
For 3#3 - i have no idea where to start
For #6 & #7 is it like #5?
For #8 - i have no clue
