Calculate the centripetal acceleration for a satellite orbiting the Earth at an altitude of 562.83 km....
Using Newton’s law of gravitation, find the centripetal acceleration of a satellite orbiting the Earth at a distance of R = 12×106 m. What is the angular velocity of that satellite? What is the period of motion? Earth’s mass: ME = 5.973×1024 kg Universal Gravitational constant: G = 6.674×10−11 m3kg−1s−2.
A satellite orbiting Earth at an altitude of 450 km emits a radio signal that has a power level of 17 W when it reaches Earth. The signal is beamed in such a way that it covers an area of 7.0 m^2 on Earth’s surface. What power is received by a ground-based antenna if the surface area of the antenna is 400 mm^2

(5 pts) Earth’s radius: RE = 6370 km Earth’s mass: ME = 5.973 × 1024 kg Universal Gravitational constant: G = 6.674 × 10−11 m3kg−1 s −2
Suppose a satellite was orbiting the Earth just above the surface. What is its centripetal acceleration? Smaller thang Equal to 3 Larger than Impossible to say without knowing the mass A hypothetical planet has a mass of half that of the Earth and a radius of twice that of the Earth. What is the acceleration due to gravity on the planet in terms of the acceleration due to gravity at the Earth? The acceleration of gravity on the Moon is...

Determine the time interval required to complete one orbit around the Earth. Express your answers in minutes 2) The pilot of an airplane notes that the compass indicates...
A satellite is in Earth orbit with an altitude at perigee of 500 km and an altitude at apogee of 700 km. What is the semimajor axis of the orbit? Please only submit a number in the answer box (do not include units). I will assume the answer you submit is in kilometers.
KEPLER'S THIRD LAW 2 \T2 A satellite orbits the Earth with an altitude of 35870 km. Use Kepler's third law to find the period of the satellite, using the Moon as your other value. Calculate the speed of the satellite. Mars has a period of 1.88 Earth Years. Earth has an average orbital radius of 149.6 x 100 km. Use Kepler's Third Law to find the average orbital radius of Mars, in 100 km.
A satellite is in a circular orbit around the Earth at an altitude of 2.24 x 106 m. (a) Find the period of the orbit. (Hint: Modify Kepler's third law so it is suitable for objects orbiting the Earth rather than the Sun. The radius of the Earth is 6.38 x 106 m, and the mass of the Earth is 5.98 x 1024 kg.) h (b) Find the speed of the satellite. km/s (c) Find the acceleration of the satellite....
