Answer:
(orbital speed of the satellite) V₀ = 3.818 km
Time (t) = 4.5 × 10⁴s
Explanation:
Given that:
The radius of the Earth is 6.37 × 10⁶ m; &
the acceleration of gravity at the satellite’s altitude is 0.532655 m/s
We can calculate the orbital speed of the satellite by using the formula:
Orbital Speed (V₀) = √(r × g)
radius of the orbit (r) = 21000 km + 6.37 × 10⁶ m
= (2.1 × 10⁷ + 6.37 × 10⁶) m
= 27370000
= 2.737 × 10⁷m
Orbital Speed (V₀) = √(r × g)
Orbital Speed (V₀) = √(2.737 × 10⁷ × 0.532655 )
= 3818.215
= 3.818 × 10³
= 3.818 Km
To find the time it takes to complete one orbit around the Earth; we use the formula:
Time (t) = 2 π × 
= 2 × 3.14 × 
= 45019.28
= 4.5 × 10 ⁴ s
<em>Quantities that determine the kinetic energy of a body are its </em><em>mass and velocity </em>
Answer: <em>mass and velocity </em>
Explanation:
The kinetic energy of a body is the energy possessed by an object by virtue of its motion. It is given by the equation

Where m represents mass of the body and v represents its velocity.
Two bodies of equal velocity but different mass the heavier body will have greater kinetic energy. When an object is at rest its velocity is equal to zero. Thus its kinetic energy will be zero. Hence it can be concluded that only moving bodies have kinetic energy.
Stationary objects placed at a height possess potential energy which is the energy by virtue of their position or configuration. The total mechanical energy of a system is the sum of potential and kinetic energy.
