Find the speed of a satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth with a radius 3.57 times the mean radius of the Earth. (Radiu

s of Earth = 6.37×103 km, mass of Earth = 5.98×1024 kg, G = 6.67×10-11 Nm2/kg2.)

The orbiting velocity of the satellite is 4.2km/s.

To find the answer, we need to know about the orbital velocity of a satellite.

<h3>What's the expression of orbital velocity of a satellite?</h3>
  • Mathematically, orbital velocity= √(GM/r)
  • r = radius of the orbital, M = mass of earth
<h3>What's the orbital velocity of a satellite orbiting earth with a radius 3.57 times the earth radius?</h3>
  • M= 5.98×10²⁴ kg, r= 3.57× 6.37×10³ km = 22.7×10⁶m
  • Orbital velocity= √(6.67×10^(-11)×5.98×10²⁴/22.7×10⁶)

=4.2km/s

Thus, we can conclude that the orbiting velocity of the satellite is 4.2km/s.

1. Determine the image distance in each of the following.
miskamm [114]

It is given that for the convex lens,

Case 1.

u=−40cm

f=+15cm

Using lens formula

v

v=+24.3cm

The image in formed in this case at a distance of 24.3cm in left of lens.

Case 2.

A point source is placed in between the lens and the mirror at a distance of 40 cm from the lens i.e. the source is placed at the focus of mirror, then the rays after reflection becomes parallel for the lens such that

u=∞

f=15cm

Now, using mirror’s formula
