An artificial satellite is in a circular orbit around a planet of radius r= 2.05 x103 km at a distance d 310.0 km from the plane

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

$\rho = 12580.7 kg/m^3$

Explanation:

As we know that the satellite revolves around the planet then the centripetal force for the satellite is due to gravitational attraction force of the planet

So here we will have

$F = \frac{GMm}{(r + h)^2}$

here we have

$F =\frac {mv^2}{(r+ h)}$

$\frac{mv^2}{r + h} = \frac{GMm}{(r + h)^2}$

here we have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{(r + h)}}$

now we can find time period as

$T = \frac{2\pi (r + h)}{v}$

$T = \frac{2\pi (2.05 \times 10^6 + 310 \times 10^3)}{\sqrt{\frac{GM}{(r + h)}}}$

$1.15 \times 3600 = \frac{2\pi (2.05 \times 10^6 + 310 \times 10^3)}{\sqrt{\frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(M)}{(2.05 \times 10^6 + 310 \times 10^3)}}}$

$M = 4.54 \times 10^{23} kg$

Now the density is given as

$\rho = \frac{M}{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}$

$\rho = \frac{4.54 \times 10^{23}}{\frac{4}[3}\pi(2.05 \times 10^6)^3}$

$\rho = 12580.7 kg/m^3$

What is called gravitational potential energy?

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Potential gravitational energy is the energy that the body has due to the Earth's gravitational attraction. In this way, the potential gravitational energy depends on the position of the body in relation to a reference level.
