km from the planet’s center. Its
angular speed at this radius is the same as the
rotational speed of the Earth, and so they ap-
pear stationary in the sky. That is, the period
of the satellite is 24 h
.
What is the force acting on this satellite?
Answer in units of N.
Concept: force on the satellite will be the centripetal force. Find the angular speed from the time period and use equation for centripetal force

This concludes the answers. If there is any mistake or
omission, let me know immediately and I will fix
it....
A 1320 kg geosynchronous satellite orbits a planet similar to Earth at a radius 193000 km from the planets center. Its angular speed at this radius is the same as the rotational speed of the Earth, and so they appear stationary in the sky. That is, the period of the satellite is 24 h . What is the force acting on this satellite? Answer in units of N. What is the mass of this planet? Answer in units of kg....
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...
A 1580 kg satellite orbits a planet at a radius of 3× 10^4 km from the planet’s center. The period of the satellite is 12 h. What is the mass of that planet?

For a circular merry-go-round, if the moment if inertia is 600 kgm^2, what angular acceleration does the 150 N force generate applied perpendicular to a radius of 2.0 meters? 6 rad/s^2 1.5 rad/s^2 0.5 rad/s^2 3 rad/s^2 2 rad/s^2 Two bowling balls (m_1 = 8 kg and m_2 = 6 kg) are separated by 0.5 meters, what is the gravitational force that bowling ball# 1 exerts on bowling ball...
A satellite m = 500 kg orbits the earth at a distance d = 218 km, above the surface of the planet. The radius of the earth is re = 6.38 × 106 m and the gravitational constant G = 6.67 × 10-11 N m2/kg2 and the Earth's mass is me = 5.98 × 1024 kg. What is the speed of the satellite in m/s?
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...
