1. The moon orbits the earth at a distance of 3.85 times 10^8 m. Assume that this distance is between the centers of the earth and the moon and that the mass of the earth is 5.98 x 10^24 kg. Find the period for the moon's motion around the earth. Express the answer in days. 2. A 0.0296 kg ball is shot from the plunger of a pinball machine. Because of a centripetal force of 0.0485 N, the ball follows...
A satellite is in a circular orbit about the Earth at a distance of four (4) Earth radii above the surface of the Earth. What is the velocity of the satellite? (Earth's mass: ME = 5.98 x 1024 kg; the radius of the Earth: 6.4 x 106m ; G = 6.67 x 10-11 Nm2/kg2 ). A) 4,072.5 m/s B)3,530.5 m/s C)5,582.2 m/s D)7,465.9 m/s
10) The international space station (ISS) orbits the Earth from
an altitude of 408 km.
a) Calculate the strength of Earth’s gravity on the ISS at that
altitude. (Hint: How far is the ISS from the center of mass of the
Earth?)
b) Earth’s gravity is what keeps the ISS in its orbit (which we
will assume is circular). At what speed does the ISS orbit the
Earth?
