Add a particular point in its orbit a satellite in an elliptical orbit has a gravitational potential energy of 5000 MJ with respect to Earth's surface and a kinetic energy of 4500 MJ later in its orbit the satellites potential energy is 6000 MJ what is its kinetic energy at that point.
orbit of Jupiter orbit of Earth Hohmann ellipse NASA would send a satellite to the planet Jupiter. To use the least fuel, the satellite would travel on a "Hohmann ellipse" with perihelion at TE and aphelion at rj - as shown in the figure; the semimajor axis is a=(re+rJ)/2. How many days would it take the satellite to travel from Earth to Jupiter? DATA: TE = 1 AU ; rj = 5.2 AU ; The astronomical unit (AU) is a unit of length relevant to the Solar System. 1 AU = the mean distance from the sun to Earth. 1 AU = 1.496 × 10¹¹ meters. {time to go from Earth to Jupiter =} (in day) A: 996.8 OB: 1445.3 OC: 2095.7 OD: 3038.8 OE: 4406.3 OF: 6389.1 OG: 9264.3 OH: 13433.2
As the moon moves around earth which is true? A) The attraction of the moon to the center of the earth accelerates its path into a nearly circular orbit B)The Drag force of the tides on the moon Bends its path into a nearly circular orbit C)The drag force on the moon keeps it from getting too far away D)It’s attraction to the earth is canceled by the centrifugal force so it moves perpendicular to its orbit
