    Assume the radius of the earth to be 6.4xx10^(6)m a. Calculate the time period T of a satellite on equational orbit at 1.4xx10^(e)m above the surface of the earth. b. What is the speed of the satellite in this orbit? c. If the satellite is travelling in the same direction as the rotation of the earth i.e. west to east, what is the interval between two successie times at which it will appear vertically overhead to an observed at a fixed point on the equator?

    A satellite is projected vertically upwards from an earth station. At what height above the earth's surface will the force on the satellite due to the earth be reduced to half its value at the earth station? (Radius of the earth is 6400 km.)

    Name a device which is commonly used to convert an electrical signal into a visual signal.

    A space station is set up in space at a distance equal to the earth's radius from the surface of the earth. Suppose a satellite can be launched from the space station. Let v_(1) and v_(2) be the escape velocities of the satellite on the earth's surface and space station, respectively. Then

    Two radio stations broadcast their programmes at the same amplitude A and at slightly different frequencies omega_(1) and omega_(2) respectively, where omega_(1) - omega_(2) = 10^(3) Hz . A detector receives the signals from the two stations simultaneously, it can only detect signals of intensity ge 2A^(2) . (i) Find the time interval between successive maxima of the intensity of the signal received by the detector. (ii) Find the time for which the detector remains idle in each cycle of the intensity of the signal.

    A satellite is orbiting around the earth in a circular orbit and in this orbit magnitude of its acceleration is a_1 . Now a rocket is fired in the direction of motion of satellite from the satellite due to which its speed instantaneously becomes half of initial, just after the rocket is fired acceleration of satellite has magnitude a_2 . Then the ratio (a_(1))/(a_(2)) is (Assume there is no external force other than the gravitational force of earth before and after the firing of rocket from the satellite)
