Explanation:
Orbital period = 2 x 10⁶s
Total radius = 2.5 x 10¹²m
Unknown:
Tangential speed of the satellite = ?
Solution:
The tangential speed simply expresses the rate at which the distance moves around its orbit with time.
Since the orbit is taken to be circular;
Tangential speed =
r is the radius
t is the time or orbital radius
Tangential speed = }[/tex]
Tangential speed = 7.85 x 10⁶m/s
