<span> 1 mi = 1.609 km
so X mi/hr = 1.609 * X km/hr hope this helps!!</span>

In 2000, NASA placed a satellite in orbit around an asteroid. Consider a spherical asteroid with a mass of 1.40×1016 kg and a ra

Arturiano [62]

A) 8.11 m/s

For a satellite orbiting around an asteroid, the centripetal force is provided by the gravitational attraction between the satellite and the asteroid:

$m\frac{v^2}{(R+h)}=\frac{GMm}{(R+h)^2}$

where

m is the satellite's mass

v is the speed

R is the radius of the asteroide

h is the altitude of the satellite

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the asteroid

Solving the equation for v, we find

$v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}$

where:

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}$

$M=1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg$

$R=8.20 km=8200 m$

$h=6.00 km = 6000 m$

Substituting into the formula,

$v=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg)}{8200 m+6000 m}}=8.11 m/s$

B) 11.47 m/s

The escape speed of an object from the surface of a planet/asteroid is given by

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}$

where:

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}$

$M=1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg$

$R=8.20 km=8200 m$

$h=6.00 km = 6000 m$

Substituting into the formula, we find:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg)}{8200 m+6000 m}}=11.47 m/s$
