Taking the earth to be a uniform sphere of radius 6400 km and the value of g at the surface to be 10ms^(-2) , calculate the energy needed to raise a satellite of mass 2000 kg to a height of 800 km a above the earth's surface and to set it into circular orbit at that altitude.

The International Space Stations (ISS), a habitable artificial satellite, is orbiting around earth at an altitude of 400 km. Calculate the additional velocity required to be given to escape the ISS from gravitational pull of earth.

The international space station is maintained in a nearly circular orbit with a mean altitude of 330 km and a maximum of 410 km. An astronaut is floating in the space station's cabin. The acceleration of astronaut as measured from the earth is -

A man standing on an international space sattion, which is orbiting earth at an altitude 520 km with a constant speed 7.6 km//s . If the man's weight is 50 kg , this acceleration is (radius of earth is 6400 km and value of g on earth is 9.8 m//s^(2)) .

The optimal way of transferring a space vehicle from an inner circular orbit to an outer coplanar circular orbit is to fire its engines as it passes through A to increase its speed and place it in an elliptic transfer orbit. Another increase in speed as it passes through B will place it in the desired circular orbit. For a vehicle in a circular orbit about the earth at an altitude h_(1) = 320 km , which is to be transferred to a circular orbit at an altitude h_(2) = 800 km , determine : (a) The required increases in speed at A and B. (b) The total energy per unit mass required to execute the
