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
Kelvin is a base unit of temperature
scale from SI that defines as zero degree Kelvin (absolute zero). The absolute
zero is a hypothetical statement that all molecular movement stops because
there is no transient of energy for the molecules to move. When converting
temperature in degree Celsius to Kelvin, add 273. You are given 600K and you
are asked to find it in degrees Celsius.
T(K) = T(C) + 273
600 K = T(C) + 273
T(C) = 600 – 273
T(C) = 327 °C
