In this question , period of time period is used and Vis-Viva equation has been used. since mass of the satellite is not given so work done per unit of mass is found out.
Please rate it positively.
Thanks
The International Space Station, ISS hereafter, has an orbital period of approxi- mately 93 minutes. Determine the following: 12. How fast is the ISS moving? 13. How far above the surface of the Eart...
The international space station (ISS) orbits the Earth with an approximately circular orbit 420 km above Earth's surface (6790 km above the center of the Earth). Suppose one evening the ISS passes in front of the full moon - which subtends an angle of 30 arc minutes (0.5 degrees)- in such a way that it exactly bisects the moon. How long will it take to cross in front of the Moon from one end to the other, as viewed by...
QUESTION 17 The International Space Station which presently has mass of about 420,000 kilograms, maintains an orbit with an altitude of between 330 and 435 kilometers (205 and 270 miles respectively) above the Earth surface by means of re-boost maneuvers using the engines of the Zvezda module or visiting spacecraft to compensate for 2 km/month orbital decay due to the atmospheric drag. Calculate the following for the low orbit of the ISS (330 kilometers above the Earth surface), assuming that...
