A satellite of mass 200 kg is launched from a site on Earth’s equator into an orbit 200 km above the surface of Earth. a. What is the satellite’s speed before it’s launched (in m/s)? (Hopefully, it’s moving along with the surface of the Earth as the Earth rotates.) b. What is the satellite’s speed in its orbit (in m/s)? (Remember there is only onespeed a satellite can have in order to maintain a stable circular orbit with agiven radius.) c. Assuming a circular orbit, what is the orbital period of this satellite? (In other words, how long (in hours) does it take for the satellite to complete one orbit?) d. What is the minimum energy (work) necessary to place the satellite in orbit,assuming no air friction? (Remember, work is the amount of energy added tothe system, and the total energy of the system is a combination of kinetic andgravitational potential energies.)

MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANOTHER (a) A spaceship is projected vertically upward from the Earth's surface with an initial speed of 6.91 km/s, but unfortunately does not have a great enough speed to escape Earth's gravity. What maximum height does the spaceship reach (in m)? Ignore air resistance. 3952535 (b) A meteoroid falls from a height of 1.91 x 107 m above the surface of the Earth. What is the speed (in m/s) when the meteorite hits the Earth? Assume the meteoroid is initially at rest with respect to the Earth. (Note that a meteorite is a meteoroid that makes it to Earth's surface.) 10698.65 X The fall of the meteorite is the time-reversal of the upward flight of the projectile, so it is described by the same energy equation as in part (a). m/s.
