As we know that KE and PE is same at a given position
so we will have as a function of position given as
also the PE is given as function of position as
now it is given that
KE = PE
now we will have
so the position is 0.707 times of amplitude when KE and PE will be same
Part b)
KE of SHO at x = A/3
we can use the formula
now to find the fraction of kinetic energy
now since total energy is sum of KE and PE
so fraction of PE at the same position will be
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
