A satellite of mass m is in an elliptical orbit around the earth of mass M(M gt gt m) the speed of the satellite at its nearest point ot the earth (perigee) is sqrt((6GM)/(5R)) where R= its closest distance to the earth it is desired to transfer this satellite into a circular orbit around the earth of radius equal its largest distance from the earth. Find the increase in its speed to be imparted at the apogee (farthest point on the elliptical orbit).

In the Rutherford’s nuclear model of the atom, the nucleus (radius about 10^(–15) m) is analogous to the sun about which the electron move in orbit (radius ~~ 10^(–10) m) like the earth orbits around the sun. If the dimensions of the solar system had the same proportions as those of the atom, would the earth be closer to or farther away from the sun than actually it is? The radius of earth’s orbit is about 1.5 xx 10^(11) m. The radius of sun is taken as 7 xx 10^8 m .
