A:
The Global Positioning System satellites operate at an altitude of 20,200 km and use communication frequencies of 1575.42 MHz. Find the gravitational frequency change with respect to Earth.

Given data, h=20,200 (km);
frequency, f=1575.42 (MHz);
So, with respect to earth gravitational frequency change for an altitude h is given by the equation;
also for the above equation, we know the value of some constants as;
Gravitational constant, ;
Mass of the Earth,
The radius of the Earth,
The velocity of light,
now putting all the value in the equation (1) we get;

- When a falling meteoroid is at a distance above the Earth's surface of 2.4 times the Earth's radius, what is its acceleration due to the Earth's gravitation? (Units: m/s2)We would like to be able to make meaningful interpretations of variations in the acceleration due to gravity, g, as small as 0.1 mgal. How accurate must our knowledge of the latitude of our gravity stations be? (A “gravity station" is just a location at which you make a gravity measurement.) You can assume your latitude is 45°.The mass of the Kepler Space telescope is 1039 kilograms. What is it’s escape velocity?
- A planet that has a mass 2.03 times that of the Earth is orbiting a star that has the a mass 3.86 times that of our Sun. The planet orbits at an average distance of 0.75 AU. How does the gravitational force between this planet and its star compare to the force between the Sun and the Earth?The unit of gravitational field strength g is newtons per kilogram. Explain how the unit of gravitational field strength relates to the unit of force.An astronomer observes a planet orbiting a star with a period of 8.7 years and a semimajor axis of 2.7 × 10° km. Find the mass of the star. The universal gravitational constant G = 6.673 × 10-11 m³ kg¬1 s-2.
- Many people mistakenly believe that the astronauts who orbit Earth are "above gravity." Earth's mass is 6×1024kg, and its radius is 6.38×106m(6380 kmkm). Use the inverse-square law to find a height above Earth's surface at that the force of gravity on a shuttle is about 96 %% that at Earth's surface.2 700kg masses (1543lb) are separated by a distance of 30m. Use newton's law of gravitation find the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by one mass on the other. Where G = 6.67 x 10^-11 N m^2/ kg^2 Please solve
