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...

The International Space Station typically travels in a circular orbit at an altitude of 400 km above the Earth's surface. The Earth itself has a radius of about 6400 km. Assume that the space station travels in a circular orbit at constant speed (this is a perfectly reasonable assumption). A. Given that the value of g is 8.68m/s28.68m/s2at an altitude of 400 km, determine the value of the space station's speed in its circular orbit. _______ m/s B. At this...

PROBLEM 12.89 A space shuttle S and a se A are in the circular orbits shown. In order for the shuttle to recover the satellite, the shuttle is first placed in an elliptic path BC by increasing its speed by Av 84 m/s as it passes through B. As the shuttle approaches C, its speed is increased by Δ1C = 78 m/s to insert it into a second elliptic transfer orbit CD. Knowing that the distance from O to C...

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...

1. An international space station in the circular orbit at 5500 km above the Earth surface needs to change its orbit to escape from cosmic debris. Find the new orbital altitude for two possible orbits: a) where its speed is increased v=1.1vo or b) its period: is decreased T-0.9T.

A 1740-kg communications satellite is released from a space shuttle to initially orbit the Earth at a radius of 9. 106 m. After being deployed, the satellite's rockets are fired to put it into a higher altitude orbit of radius 4. 107 m. What is the minimum mechanical energy supplied by the rockets to effect this change in orbit?
A 507 kg satellite is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 754 km above...
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...

(13% ) Problem 5: A 4500-kg spaceship is in a circular orbit 170 km above the surface of Earth. It needs to be moved into a higher circular orbit of 390 km to link up with the space station at that altitude a How much work, in joules, do the spaceship's engines have to perform to move to the higher orbit? Ignore any change of mass due to fuel consumption. Grade Summary 0%

10) The international space station (ISS) orbits the Earth from
an altitude of 408 km.
a) Calculate the strength of Earth’s gravity on the ISS at that
altitude. (Hint: How far is the ISS from the center of mass of the
Earth?)
b) Earth’s gravity is what keeps the ISS in its orbit (which we
will assume is circular). At what speed does the ISS orbit the
Earth?
