g = G Me / (Re + h)^2
Re + h = r
g = G Me /r^2 = 9 m/s^2
(6.67 x 10^-11 x 5.972 x 10^24)/ r^2 = 9
r = 6.653 x 10^6 m
G Me m /r^2 = m v^2 / r
v^2 / r = G Me / r^2
v^2 = 6.653 x 10^6 x 9
v = 7737.88 m/s
T = 2 pi r / v = 5402.26 sec or 1.5 hrs
2. T = 2pi r / v
v = (2 x pi x 4.22 x 10^5 x 10^3 m) / (1.77 x 24 x 3600 s)
v = 17338.25 m/s
And G M m / r^2 = m v^2 / r
G M / r = v^2
(6.67 x 10^-11) (M) = (17338.25)^2 (4.22 x 10^8)
M = 1.902 x 10^27 kg

A minimum-energy transfer orbit to an outer planet consists of putting a spacecraft on an elliptical trajectory with the departure planet corresponding to the perihelion of the ellipse, or the closest point to the Sun, and the arrival planet at the aphelion, or the farthest point from the Sun. (Assume the orbital radius of the Earth is 1.50 times 10^11 m, and the orbital radius of Mars is 2.28 times 10^11 m.) Use Kepler's third law to calculate how long...

Satellite A has twice the mass of satellite B, and circles in the same orbit. Compare the two satellite's speeds. The speed of B is twice the speed of A. The speed of Bis half the speed of A. A. The speed of Bis one-fourth the speed of A. The speed of B is equal to the speed of A. The speed of Halley's Comet, while traveling in its elliptical orbit around the Sun, O is constant increases as it...

The semimajor axis of Mars orbit is about 1.52 astronomical units (au), where an au is the Earth's average distance from the Sun, meaning the semimajor axis of Earth's orbit is 1 au. To go from Earth to Mars and use the least energy from rocket fuel, the orbit has a semimajor axis of 1.26 au and an eccentricity of about 0.21. Starting at Earth's orbit, to follow this path we give the spacecraft an orbital velocity of 40 km/s. ...
