Two indentical geostationary satellite each of mass m are moving with equal speed upsilon in the same orbit but their sense of rotation brings them on a collision course. What will happen to the debris?

Two satellites A & B move round the earth in the same orbit. The mass of B is twice that of A, then

Two satellites Aand B move round the earth in the same orbit. The mass of B' is twice the mass of A

Two satellites A and B move round the eaerth in the same orbit. The mass of B is twice the mass of A.

Consider two satellites A and B of equal mass m, moving in the same circular orbit of radius r around the earth E but in opposite sense of rotation and therefore on a collision course (see figure). In terms of G, Me, m and r find the total mechanical energy EA + EB of the two satellite plus earth system before collision.

Consider two satellites A and B of equal mass m, moving in the same circular orbit of radius r around the earth E but in opposite sense of rotation and therefore on a collision course (see figure). If the collision is completely inelastic so that wreckage remains as one piece of tangle d material (mass = 2m), find the total mechanical energy immediately after collision.
