If any satellite has kinetic energy `6 xx 10^(9)J` , then what its potential energy ? Total energy?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`implies` If satellite has kinetic energy x then its potential energy is - 2x and total energy is - x
`:.` Here, kinetic energy is `6 xx 10^(9 )J` hence potential energy `= -12 xx 10^(9) J` and total energy `=-6 xx10^(9)J`
