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?

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.

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) (i). In terms of G,M_(e) m and r find the total mechanical energy E_(A)+E_(B) of the two satellite plus earth system before collision (ii). If the collision is completely inelastic so that wreckage remains as one piece of tangled material (mass=2m) find the total mechanical energy immediately after collision.
