Answer:
a) 6636 km
b) 0.0154
Explanation:
The height above the earth at its furthest point is 368 km
The height above the earth at its closest point is 164 km
Radius of the Earth is 6370 km
The distance of the satellite from the center of the earth to the furthest point is 6370 + 368 km = 6738 km
The distance of the satellite from the center of the earth to the closest point is 6370 + 164 = 6534 km
If we add together the sum of the distance of the satellite from the furthest and its closest distance, it is equal to the 2 major semi axis.
Basically,
2a = R + r
a = (R + r) / 2
a = (6738 + 6534) / 2
a = 13272 / 2
a = 6636 km
Eccentricity, e = (a - r) / a
Eccentricity, e = (6636 - 6534) / 6636
Eccentricity, e = 102 / 6636
Eccentricity, e = 0.0154
Answer:b) atoms
