Two Earth satellites, A and B, each of mass m, are to be launched into circular orbits about Earth's center. Satellite A is to orbit at an altitude of 6240 km. Satellite B is to orbit at an altitude of 20400 km. The radius of Earth RE is 6370 km. a) What is the ratio of the potential energy of satellite B to that of satellite A, in orbit? b) What is the ratio of the kinetic energy of satellite...
Consider a satellite of mass m moving in a circular orbit around the Earth at a constant speed v and at an altitude h above the Earth's surface as illustrated in the figure. (a) Determine the speed of the satellite in terms of G, h, Re (the radius of the Earth), and Me (the mass of the Earth). (b) If the satellite is to be geosynchronous (that is, appearing to remain over a fixed position on the Earth), how fast...

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...
For the known values of the Earth such that RE = 6.37×106m and ME = 5.97×1024kg, determine (a) the height that the satellite is orbiting above the surface, and (b) tangential velocity of a satellite while in a geosynchronous orbit. Take a sidereal day to be 23 hours and 56 minutes. I calculated a to be 35730. I cant figure out how to find b. Thanks!
