A 2.0 x103 kg satellite is in a circular orbit around the earth (m = 5.98 x 1024 kg). The satellite has a speed of 3.6 x 103 m/s at an orbital radius of 3.1 x 107 m. What is the total energy of this orbiting satellite?
The work done in one complete revolution of the moon around the earth is equal to:
A) centripetal force x radius of the orbit of the moon
B) gravitational force x circumference of the orbit of the moon
C) gravitational force x diameter of the orbit of the moon
D) zero
How much work is required to lift a 500-kg satellite to an altitude of 3⋅10^6 m above the surface of the Earth? The gravitational force is F=GMm/r^2, where M is the mass of the Earth, m is the mass of the satellite, and r is the distance between the satellite and the Earth's center. The radius of the Earth is 6.4⋅10^6 m, its mass is 6⋅10^24 kg, and in these units the gravitational constant, G, is 6.67⋅10^−11.
