A satellite is a at height of 25, 600 km from the surface of the earth. If its orbital speed is 3.536 km/s find its time period.
(Radius of the earth = 6400 km)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`6400km = 6.4 xx10^(6)m, h = 25`
600 km `=25.6m,v_(0) = 3.536 xx10^(3)m//s`
The time period `T=(2pi(R+h))/V_(0)=(2pi(25.6xx6.4)10^(6))/(3.536xx10^(3))`
= `(2pixx32)/(3.536) xx10^(3) = 56,870s`
