Based on the calculations, the speed required for this satellite to stay in orbit is equal to 1.8 × 10³ m/s.
<u>Given the following data:</u>
- Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m/kg²
- Mass of Moon = 7.36 × 10²² kg
- Distance, r = 4.2 × 10⁶ m.
<h3>How to determine the speed of this satellite?</h3>
In order to determine the speed of this satellite to stay in orbit, the centripetal force acting on it must be sufficient to change its direction.
This ultimately implies that, the centripetal force must be equal to the gravitational force as shown below:
Fc = Fg
mv²/r = GmM/r²
<u>Where:</u>
- m is the mass of the satellite.
Making v the subject of formula, we have;
v = √(GM/r)
Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
v = √(6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ × 7.36 × 10²²/4.2 × 10⁶)
v = √(1,168,838.095)
v = 1,081.13 m/s.
Speed, v = 1.8 × 10³ m/s.

Answer:
m = 4.4 × 10³ kg
Explanation:
Given that:
The total yearly energy is 4.0 × 10²⁰ J
The amount of mass that provides this energy can be determined by using the formula:
E = mc²
where;
c = speed of light in free space = (3 × 10⁸)
4.0 × 10²⁰ = m × (3 × 10⁸)²
m = 4.4 × 10³ kg
Finding acceleration= final speed-initial speed/time taken (or A=V-U\T)
Finial speed= 27.8s
Initial speed= 0s
Time taken= 5.15
So..
27.8-0/5.15= 5.40m/s (rounded to two decimal places)
