A communications satellite is in a synchronous orbit that is 3.09×107m directly above the equator. The satellite is located midway between Quito, Equador, and Belem, Brazil, two cities almost on the equator that are separated by a distance of 3.48×106m. Calculate the time it takes for a telephone call to go by way of satellite between these cities. Ignore the curvature of the earth.

A communications satellite is in a synchronous orbit that is 3.61×107 m directly above the equator. The satellite is located midway between Quito, Equador, and Belem, Brazil, two cities almost on the equator that are separated by a distance of 3.87×106 m. Calculate the time it takes for a telephone call to go by way of satellite between these cities. Ignore the curvature of the earth.

The largest satellite of the dwarf planet Pluto is Charon which has a mass of 1.586x 10^22 kg and a 1212 km diameter. Charon is being visited by the intrepid geologist astronaut, Lil Suzi. Glad that her long trip from Ceres is over, in celebration she pitched a 3 kg piece of Charon’s ice horizontally at 22 meters per second over the edge of serendipity chasma (a canyon) at a location where the canyon is 1560 meters deep. A) if...
