Physics

Answer:

G M m / R^2 = m v^2 / R     gravitational force = centripetal force

G M = v^2 R   =    constant

As v increases R will must decrease

Take the moon as an example

S = 2 pi R   where R is about 240,000 miles for one orbit

S / 1 day = 54,000 miles/day  for a 28 day circuit

S / 1 hr = 54000 / 24 = 2200 mph  which is much less than a satellite in orbit

How fast did Newton decide a cannon ball shot out in order to escape Earth’s gravity?
arsen [322]

Plugging in for the Earth's mass and for G, we have 11.2 km/s for the escape velocity for an object launched from the Earth's surface. This is about 25,000 miles per hour

marysya [2.9K]
I have a formula here that might just help you solve the problem on your own:

The number of images depends on the angle between the two mirrors. The number of images formed in two plane mirrors inclined at an angle A to each other is given by the formula:

Number of images = 360<span>/A - 1.
