Calculate the altitude at which an artificial satelliteorbiting in the equatorial plane can be synchronous satellite (i.e.,so it can remain above the same spot on the surface of the earth).(hint: consider gravitational force is balanced with the centrifugal force, so zero gravitystate).

Previous Question: A satellite is said to be in a “geosynchronous” orbit if it appears always to remain over the exact same spot on the rotating Earth. What is the period of this orbit? [enter your answer in hours.] (a) At what distance (in km) from the center of the Earth must such a satellite be placed into orbit? [Enter your answer in regular decimal notation instead of scientific notation, i.e. not 3.97 x 10^5, but 397000 .] (b) Why...

Telecommunication satellites travel in geosynchronous orbits. these satellites move in sync with the Earth surface and always stay above the same point on the surface of the earth. all satellites in geosynchronous orbit must be located in the equatorial plane. Please, explain why it has to stay in the equatorial plane. Please EXPLAIN why it has to stay in the equatorial plane. DRAW a simple diagram showing forces acting on such a satellite. Hint: For any stable orbit the centripetal...

A synchronous satellite, which always remains above the same point on a planet's equator, is put in orbit around Jupiter to study that planet's famous red spot. Jupiter rotates once every 9.84 h. Use the following data to find the altitude of the satellite above the surface of the planet. Jupiter has a mass of 1.90 1027 kg, and a mean radius of 6.99 107 m. Answer must be in km

Problem 1 a. The apogee and perigee altitude (distance from the surface of Earth) of the Chandra X-rays Observatory are 139,200 km and 9,620 km (final orbit after 4th burn, Aug 7, 1999). Estimate its orbital period (in hours). Hint: the mass of Chandra is much smaller than the mass of Earth. b. Communications and weather satellites are often placed in geosynchronous “parking” orbits above Earth. These are the orbits where satellites can remain fixed above a specific point on...

A “synchronous” satellite, which always re- mains above the same point on a planet’s equator, is put in orbit about a planet similar to Jupiter. This planet rotates once every 9 . 6 h, has a mass of 1 . 9 × 10 27 kg and a radius of 6 . 99 × 10 7 m. Given that G = 6 . 67 × 10 − 11 N m 2 / kg 2 , calculate how far above Jupiter’s SURFACE...
