A geostationary satellite orbits the earth at a height of nearly 36,000 km from the surface of the earth. What is the potential due to earth's gravity at the site of the satellite ? Mass of the earth= `6xx10^(24)`kg and radius =6400 km.

A geostationary satellite orbits the Earth at a height of nearly 36,000 km from the surface of earth. What is the potential due to earth's gravity at the site of tthis satllite ? (Take the potential energy at infinity to be zero). Mass of the Earth = 6.0 xx 10^(24) kg , radius = 6400 km, G = 6.67 xx 10^(-11) Nm^(2)//kg^(2) .

A geostationary satellite should be at a height nearly…… km above the equator of earth.

An artificial satellite is orbiting at a height of 1800 km from the surface of earth. What is speed of the satellite ? (R = 6300 km)

A satellite orbits the earth at a height of 500 km from its surface. Compute its (i) Kinetic energy, (ii) potential energy, and (iii) total energy. Mass of the satellite=300 kg, Mass of the earth= 6.0xx10^(24) kg, radius of the earth= 6.4xx10^(6) m, G= 6.67xx10^(-11)Nm^(2)Kg^(-2) . Will your answer alter if the earth were to shrink suddenly to half its size?

A satellite orbits the earth at a height of 400 km, above the surface. How much energy must be expended to rocket the satellite out of the earth's gravitational influence ? Mass of the satellite=200 kg, mass of the earth= 6.0xx10^(24) kg, radius of the earth= 6.4xx10(6) m, G= 6.67xx10^(-11)Nm^(2)Kg^(-2) .
