Mithra is an unknown planet that has two moons, A and B , in circular orbits around it. The table summarizes the hypothetical data about these moons. What is the mass of Mithra? (G=6.67×( G = 6.67 \times 1011 Nm2/kg2) \left. 10 ^ { - 11 } \mathrm {~N} \cdot \mathrm { m } ^ { 2 } / \mathrm { kg } ^ { 2 } \right)


A) 1×1023 kg1 \times 10 ^ { 23 } \mathrm {~kg}
B) 1×1022 kg1 \times 10 ^ { 22 } \mathrm {~kg}
C) 1×1024 kg1 \times 10 ^ { 24 } \mathrm {~kg}
D) 3×1022 kg3 \times 10 ^ { 22 } \mathrm {~kg}
E) 3×1023 kg3 \times 10 ^ { 23 } \mathrm {~kg}
