How do you calculate the gravitational attraction between the earth and something in Earth's orbit?

Example: Earth’s gravitational field is 7.97 N/kg at the altitude of the space shuttle. At this altitude what is the size of the force of attraction between a student with a mass of 42.5 kg and Earth?

What was the potential energy of the earth-spacecraft system?

Ten days after it was launched toward Mars in December 1998, the Mars Climate Orbiter spacecraft (mass 629 kg) was
2.87 x 10^6 km from the earth and traveling at
1.20 x 10^4 km/h relative to the earth.

ChEMISTRY????!?!?

-There are 355ml in a 12 ounce soda. How many ounces are in a two-liter bottle?

and….

- If a life-size gold statue of a man has a volume of 9.08 x 10 (to the 4th) ml how many pounds would it weigh?

Density of gold is 14.5 g/ml and 1 kg = 2.2 lbs

Please tell me how to do these!
