A geosynchronous satellite moves in a circular orbit around the Earth and completes one circle in the same time T during which the Earth completes one revolution around its own axis. The satellite has mass m and the Earth has mass M and radius R. In order to be geosynchronous, the satellite must be at a certain height h above the Earth’s surface.what is the numerical value for h in meters.

In 2014, the Rosetta space probe reached the comet Churyumov– Gerasimenko. Although the comet’s core is actually far from spherical, in this problem we’ll model it as a sphere with a mass of 1.0 x 1013 kg and a radius of 1.6 km. If a rock were dropped from a height of 1.0 m above the comet’s surface, how long would it take to hit the surface?

One satellite has mass m₁ = 68.0 kg, orbital radius r₁ = 5.00 × 107 m, and orbital speed v₁ = 4800 m/s. The second satellite has mass m₂ = 84.0 kg and orbital radius 12 = 3.00 x 107 m. a.

Take the mass of the Earth to be ME = 6 × 1024 kg. The satellite is subject to a small frictional force of magnitude f = 0.0269 N due to the outer atmosphere of the Earth.

Hint: Assume that the change in radius is slow enough that at any instant of the orbit the satellite can be considered to be undergoing circular motion. Also, since this change in radius will be small, in the sense that A« 1, you may (and should) use a Taylor expansion to find a close (i.e., first-order) approximation to the exact answer.
