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.
6.43- Satellites and Kepler's Laws: An Argument for Simplicity A geosynchronous Earth satellite is one that has an orbital period of precisely 1 day. Such orbits are useful for communication and weather observation because the satellite remains above the same point on Earth (provided it orbits in the equatorial plane in the same direction as Earth's rotation). Calculate the radius of such an orbit based on the data for the moon using the following data: Distance from Earth to Moon...
1. The moon orbits the earth at a distance of 3.85 times 10^8 m. Assume that this distance is between the centers of the earth and the moon and that the mass of the earth is 5.98 x 10^24 kg. Find the period for the moon's motion around the earth. Express the answer in days. 2. A 0.0296 kg ball is shot from the plunger of a pinball machine. Because of a centripetal force of 0.0485 N, the ball follows...
The average distance from the Moon to the center of the Earth is 384,400 km, and the diameter of the Earth is 12,756 km. Calculate the gravitational force that the Moon exerts (a) on a 1-kg rock at the point on the Earth’s surface closest to the Moon and (b) on a 1-kg rock at a point on the Earth’s surface furthest from the Moon. The mass of the Moon is 7.349 × 1022 kg. (c) Find the difference between...
Consider a Hohmann transfer from a circular parking orbit around Earth at 200 km altitude, to the Moon (distance center of mass Earth – center of mass Moon is 384,000 km; you can ignore the size of the Moon and the altitude of the target orbit around the Moon). The Moon orbits Earth in a circular orbit as well. Both orbits (parking,Moon) are coplanar. What is the velocity of the Moon,and what is the velocity of the satellite when reaching...
18. A satellite orbits the earth once every 4 hours. If the mass of the Earth is 6.0e24 kg, what is the radius of the orbit of the satellite (measured from the center of the Earth)? Assume that the satellite's speed is constant and its orbit is circular. R = ? A B C D E 7.81e+006 m 6.93e+007 m 3.04e+007 m 1.28e+007 m 9.11e+007 m
A satellite m = 500 kg orbits the earth at a distance d = 218 km, above the surface of the planet. The radius of the earth is re = 6.38 × 106 m and the gravitational constant G = 6.67 × 10-11 N m2/kg2 and the Earth's mass is me = 5.98 × 1024 kg. What is the speed of the satellite in m/s?
If the moon orbits around the Earth once every 28 days, what would be the moons orbital period if it's mass was reduced to 1/4?
Calculate the period of a satellite orbiting the Moon, 96 km above the Moon's surface. Ignore effects of the Earth. The radius of the Moon is 1740 km..
