A 37.4 kg satellite circles planet Cruton every 7.57 h. The
magnitude of the gravitational force exerted on the satellite by
Cruton is 94.3 N. (a) What is the radius of the orbit? (b) What is
the kinetic energy of the satellite? (c) What is the mass of planet
Cruton?
These are what I got, all of them the HW website said were
wrong:
(a) 2.21e7 m
(b) 4.87e8 J
(c) 1.85e25 kg
Let me know how you get to your answer! Thanks.
Mass of satellite, m = 37.4 kg
Time period of revolution, T = 7.57 h
Angular frquency of revolution, ω = 2π/T = (2*3.142) / (7.57 * 60 * 60) rad/s = 2.3x10-4 rad/s
a) Let the radius of circular orbit be r.
The gravitational force acting on satellite by planet Cruton equals the centrepetal force = mω2r = 94.3 N
(37.4 * (2.3x10-4)2 * r) = 94.3
r = 4.77x107 m
b) Kinetic Energy of satellite = (1/2)mv2 = (1/2)mω2r2 = (1/2) * 37.4 * (2.3x10-4)2 * (4.77x107)2 J = 2.25x109 J
c) Let the mass of planet Cruton be M.
Gravitational force acting between Cruton and satellite = GMm/r2 = 94.3 N
(6.67x10-11) * M * 37.4 / (4.77x107)2 = 94.3
M = 8.6x1025 kg
