The formula to find the period of orbit of a satellite around a planet is (T^2) = (4pi^2/ gm) r3 where r is the orbit’s mean rad
ius, M is the mass of the planet, and G is the universal gravitational constant. If you are given all the values except r, how do you rewrite the formula to solve for r?
1 answer:
See the attached graphic to see this solved for "r".
You should be very careful about stating the units for each of those variables.
time in seconds
radius in meters
mass in kilograms
G = 6.674 x 10^-11 m^3 / (kilograms * seconds²)

Answer:
Substitute n =1, 2, 3, 4, 5 to get the first five terms.
Step-by-step explanation:
(4).
To find the first term, substitute n = 1.
Therefore, = 2
= 6
= 18
= 54
= 168
Therefore the first five terms of the sequence are: 2, 6, 18, 54, 168.
(5).
= 4
Therefore the first five terms in the sequence are: 6, 4, 8/3, 16/9, 32/27.
