A 270 kg satellite is orbiting on a circular orbit 6180 km above the Earth's surface. Determine the speed of the satellite. (The mass of the Earth is 5.97×1024 kg, and the radius of the Earth is 6370 km.)
What is the height H above the earth's surface at which all geosynchronous satellites (regardless of mass) must be placed in orbit? Note: A satellite that goes around the earth once every 24 hours is called a geosynchronous satellite. Mass of Earth: 6*1024 kg, radius of Earth = 6400 km. Note that the distance of the satellite from the Earth (r) in the formula is the distance from the center of the Earth. When you find the total distance r,...

6 4 points We want to place a satellite into a circular orbit 300 km above the earth's surface. What is the speed of the satellite? (The carth's radius is 6370 km, and its mass is 5.98 x 10% kg and G = 6.67 x 10-11 Nm/ky?) 11340m's 346 m/s 15408 m/s 7730 mys 19750 m/s
A 345 kg satellite is orbiting 15500 km above the surface of Earth. The mass and radius of Earth are 5.972e+24 kg and 6378 km respectively. What is the kinetic energy of the satellite?
Find the speed of a satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth with a radius 2.77 times the mean radius of the Earth. (Radius of Earth -6.37x103 km, mass of Earth 5.98x1024 kg, G - 6.67x10 11 Nm2/kg2.)
A geosynchcronous satellite is one that stays above the same point on the Earth, that is it rotates with the same angular velocity than Earth. This is possible only if the satellite is above a point on the equator. Determine: a) The height above the Earth's surface such satellite must orbit? b) What is the satellite speed? c) If the satellite is orbiting 200 km above Earth, what is the satellite speed? ( Remember G=6.67x10-11 N m2/kg2, MEarth = 5.98x1024...
