Solar system is the gravitationally bound system that consists of the sun and the objects that orbit around it directly or indirectly. These objects includes the planets which orbit the sun directly an other small objects such as meteoroids, asteroids, satellites of the planets and numerous comets. The sun makes up most of the solar system' mass.

A satellite is spinning at 6.0 rev/s. The satellite consists of a main body in the shape of a sphere of radius 2.0 m and mass 10

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

605447.7066 kgm²/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of sphere = 10000 kg

$m_2$ = Mass of rod = 10 kg

r = Radius of sphere = 2 m

l = Length of antenna = 3 m

Angular speed

$\omega=6\times 2\pi\\\Rightarrow \omega=37.69911\ rad/s$

Angular momentum is given by

$L=I\omega$

Moment of inertia of the satellite is

$I_s=\frac{2}{5}m_1r^2$

Moment of antenna of the satellite is

$I_a=\frac{1}{3}m_2l^2$

The angular momentum of the system is

$L=I_s\omega+I_a\omega\\\Rightarrow L=\left(\frac{2}{5}m_1r^2+2\times \frac{1}{3}m_2l^2\right)\omega\\\Rightarrow L=\left(\frac{2}{5}10000\times 2^2+2\times \frac{1}{3}\times 10\times 3^2\right)\times 37.69911\\\Rightarrow L=605447.7066\ kgm^2/s$

The angular momentum of the satellite is 605447.7066 kgm²/s
