Earth Constants Mass of Earth- 5.98 X 1024 kg mean radius of Earth- 6.378 x 106 m
A 600 kg satellite moves in a circular orbit around the Earth at a height equal to 1 mean radius of the Earth above the surface of the planet. Find the • Satellite’s orbital speed • Satellite’s period of revolution • Gravitational force acting on satellite • Acceleration due to gravity on satellite • Frequency of the satellite
A satellite moves in a circular orbit around the Earth at 5000 m/s. Determine the • Satellite’s distance from the center of the Earth • Satellite’s distance from the surface of the Earth • The period of the Satellite’s orbit
A 345 kg satellite is orbiting the earth 550 km above the surface of the planet (radius and mass in previous question). Find the following • Orbital speed • Orbital radius • What is the centripetal force on the satellite? • What force keeps the satellite in circular orbit around the earth?
