(a) A 374 kg satellite orbits the Earth at a height of 3197 km
above the Earth's surface. Assume the Earth has a mass of 5.98 x
1024 kg and a radius of 6,380 km. Find the velocity (in
m/s) of the satellite in its orbit.
(b) Calculate the period of the satellite's orbit when it orbits
the Earth at a height of 3197 km above the Earth's surface. State
your answer in minutes.

A satellite moves in orbit about the Earth at a height of 9500
km above Earth's surface. Find a) the velocity of the satellite; b)
it's period of rotation; c) the magnitude of the Earth's
gravitational force on the satellite if it's mass is 2500 kg; d) if
the satellite's velocity is increased by 20% at what height must it
now orbit the Earth?
Explain D step by step please.

A geosynchronous satellite is one that stays above the same
point on the equator of the earth. Determine the height above the
Earth's surface such a satellite must orbit and find it's speed.
(Note that the radius in equation is measured from the center of
the earth, not the surface.) You may use the following constants:
The universal gravitational constant G is 6.67 x 10-11 N m2 /
kg2 .
The mass of the earth is 5.98 x...

What's ratio of the orbital period for a satellite in
a geosynchronous orbit around the Earth to that of a satellite in
an orbit slightly above the surface of the Earth? The Earth has a
radius of 6371km, and a satellite in a circular geosynchronous
orbit has a radius of 42000km from the center of the earth. The
mass of the Earth is 5.792*10^24kg, and Newton's gravitation
constant is G=6.674*10^-11N*m^2/kg^2

For a satellite at a height of 25,000 miles, at what speed must
the satellite be traveling to achieve a circular orbit? (A score of
100% will tell you that you have achieved a circular orbit).

A geosynchronous orbit is one in which the satellite orbits
above the equator and has an orbital period of 24 hours so that it
is always above the same point on the spinning earth. Calculate the
altitude of such a satellite.
(b) What is the gravitational field experienced by the
satellite? Give your answer as a percentage in relation to the
gravitational eld at the earth's surface.
