Answer:
I think the acceleration is 12m/s
Let R be radius of Earth with the amount of 6378 km h = height of satellite above Earth m = mass of satellite v = tangential velocity of satellite
Since gravitational force varies contrariwise with the square of the distance of separation, the value of g at altitude h will be 9.8*{[R/(R+h)]^2} = g'
So now gravity acceleration is g' and gravity is balanced by centripetal force mv^2/(R+h):
m*v^2/(R+h) = m*g' v = sqrt[g'*(R + h)]
Satellite A: h = 542 km so R+h = 6738 km = 6.920 e6 m g' = 9.8*(6378/6920)^2 = 8.32 m/sec^2 so v = sqrt(8.32*6.920e6) = 7587.79 m/s = 7.59 km/sec
Satellite B: h = 838 km so R+h = 7216 km = 7.216 e6 m g' = 9.8*(6378/7216)^2 = 8.66 m/sec^2 so v = sqrt(8.32*7.216e6) = 7748.36 m/s = 7.79 km/sec
Infrared waves are used in heat lamps and other heat sensing devices. Infrared waves or commonly known as Infrared radiations (IR) is the type of electromagnetic radiation we encounter most in our everyday life. Heat lamps are electrical devices which emit infrared radiation.
