Hello!
Recall the period of an orbit is how long it takes the satellite to make a complete orbit around the earth. Essentially, this is the same as 'time' in the distance = speed * time equation. For an orbit, we can define these quantities:
← The circumference of the orbit
speed = orbital speed, we will solve for this later
time = period
Therefore:

Where 'r' is the orbital radius of the satellite.
First, let's solve for 'v' assuming a uniform orbit using the equation:

G = Gravitational Constant (6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²)
m = mass of the earth (5.98 × 10²⁴ kg)
r = radius of orbit (1.276 × 10⁷ m)
Plug in the givens:

Now, we can solve for the period:

You draw a straight line from the start point to the end point. It doesn't matter what route was actually followed for the trip.
Answer:
The magnitude of the rate of change of the child's momentum is 794.11 N.
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of child = 27 kg
Speed of child in horizontal = 10 m/s
Length = 3.40 m
There is a rate of change of the perpendicular component of momentum.
Centripetal force acts always towards the center.
We need to calculate the magnitude of the rate of change of the child's momentum
Using formula of momentum


Put the value into the formula


Hence, The magnitude of the rate of change of the child's momentum is 794.11 N.
