A satellite is launched into a circular orbit 1600 km above the surface of the earth. Find the period of revolution, the radius of the earth R = 6400 km and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m//sec^2 .

A satellite orbits the earth at a height of 400 km above the surface. How much energy must be expended to rocket the satellite out of the earth’s gravitational influence? Mass of the satellite = 200 kg, mass of the earth = 6.0xxl0^24 kg , radius of the earth = 6.4 xx 10^6 m , G = 6.67 xx 10^11 N m^2kg^2 .

As you have learnt in the text, a geostationary satellite orbits the earth at a height of nearly 36,000 km from the surface of the earth. What is the potential due to earth’s gravity at the site of this satellite ? (Take the potential energy at infinity to be zero). Mass of the earth = 6.0Xx10^24 kg , radius = 6400 km.
