Compute the work required to launch a 1000kg satellite vertically to an orbit 1000 km high. Earth's mass is 5.98e24 kg and radius is 6.37e6 m. G = 6.67e11 (N/M^2)/kg a) Use an improper integral and information from exercise 27 to find the work needed to propel a 1000kg satellite out of the earth's gravitational field. b) Find the escape velocity that is needed to propel a rocket of mass "m" out of the gravitational field of a planet of mass M and radius r. Use the fact that the initial kinetic energy of 1/2mv^2 supplies the needed work.

A 507 kg satellite is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 754 km above a planet’s surface. This planet is similar to our Earth. Because of air friction, the satellite eventually is brought to the Earth’s surface, and it hits the Earth with a speed of 3 km/s. The radius of the planet is 7 × 106 m and its mass is 8 × 1024 kg. The gravitational constant is 6.67259 × 10−11 N m2 /kg2. How much...
Consider a 495 kg satellite in a circular orbit at a distance of 3.02 x 104 km above the Earth's surface.

The nefarious Dr. X lives on a dark and lonely planet. He attempts to launch a 2000 k control satellite in order to take over his world. The mean radius of the dark and planet is 3 3 times 10^6 m and its mass is M = 7.5 times 10^23 kg. If Dr. X wishes to launch the satellite into a circular orbit 1500 km above the surface of the planet, What would the period of the satellite be once...
