Two satellites are in circular orbits around the earth. The orbit for satellite A is at a height of 460 km above the earth’s surface, while that for satellite B is at a height of 774 km. Find the orbital speed for (a) satellite A and (b) satellite B.
If a satellite orbits the Earth with a period of 120 minutes, determine its altitude above the earth's surface. Answer to 3 significant digits.
Q1: A 1 036-kg satellite orbits the Earth at a constant altitude of 93-km. (a) How much energy must be added to the system to move the satellite into a circular orbit with altitude 203 km? MJ (b) What is the change in the system's kinetic energy? MJ (c) What is the change in the system's potential energy? MJ Q2: A 475 kg satellite is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 575 km above the Earth's surface. Because...
A geostationary communications satellite orbits the earth directly above the equator at an altitude of 34800 km .Calculate the time it would take a cell phone signal to travel from a point on the equator to the satellite and back.Would this delay be noticeable in a conversation?
A satellite travels around Earth in uniform circular motion at an altitude of 35,850 km above Earth’s surface. The satellite is in geosynchronous orbit. In the below figure, the satellite moves counterclockwise (ABCDA). (State directions in terms of the x- and y-axes.) The radius of Earth is 6371 km. What is the direction of the satellite’s average velocity for one quarter of an orbit, starting at A and ending at B? Enter the answer in degrees where negative indicates an...
10-3. A 639-kg satellite is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height h = 1.16 x 10^7 m above the Earth’s surface. Find (a) the gravitational force (N) acting on the satellite, (b) the satellite’s speed (m/s) (magnitude of its velocity, not its angular velocity), and (c) the period (h) of its revolution. Caution: The radius of the satellite’s orbit is not just its height above the Earth’s surface. It also includes the radius of the Earth. The...
if a satellite orbits around earth 2 times in 24 hours at the height of 400 km above earth surface, calculate its linear velocity The radius of the earth is 6.4 x 100m
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...
