An unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 52.0 km . To the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 21.0 m/s . If nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?

An unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 55.0km . To the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 15 m/s. If nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface? .

Question 3 1 pts A spacecraft with mass 1,976 kg is in circular orbit around Earth as shown with the green circle in the figure, at an altitude h = 608 km. At point Pin the orbit (see figure), the spacecraft reduces its speed by 4%, causing it to be in an elliptical orbit. What is the semi-major axis of the elliptical orbit in km? Reminder the radius of the orbit is the altitude plus Re, the radius of Earth....

A spacecraft with mass 1500 kg is in a circular orbit at an altitude 200 km above the surface of Earth. A) Use the Law of Universal Gravitation and Newton's 2nd law for circular motion to derive and find the speed of the spacecraft in this orbit. B) How much mechanical energy does the spacecraft have in this orbit? C) How much work must the spacecraft engines perform to get it into the above circular orbit from the surface of...

Consider a satellite of mass m moving in a circular orbit around the Earth at a constant speed v and at an altitude h above the Earth's surface as illustrated in the figure. (a) Determine the speed of the satellite in terms of G, h, Re (the radius of the Earth), and Me (the mass of the Earth). (b) If the satellite is to be geosynchronous (that is, appearing to remain over a fixed position on the Earth), how fast...

The space shuttle typically travels in a circular orbit at an altitude of 500 km above the Earth's surface. The Earth itself has a radius of about 6400 km. The shuttle can travel in a circular orbit, at constant speed, without any need for the rocket engine to be on, if it travels at just the right speed (a) Given that the value of g is 8.50 m/s2 at an altitude of 500 km, determine the value of the shuttle's...
