- A satellite is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 1.5 earth radii, with an inclination of 90°. Calculate the satellite's orbital period in minutes. Report your answer to three significant digits (e.g. 123). For the radius of the earth use RE = 6371 km; for the gravitation acceleration use g = 9.81 m/s2. What is the orbital period in minutes?In 2000 , NASA placed a satellite in orbit around an asteroid. consider a spherical asteroid with a mass of 1.50 * 10^16 kg and a radius of 10.0 km what is the speed of a satellitie orbiting 5.90 km above the surface ? express with appropriate units what is the escape speed from the asteroid (express with appropriate units)19
- With what orbital speed will a satellite circle Jupiter if placed at a height of 6.50 10 6 m above the surface of the planet? The mass of Jupiter is 1.90 ✕ 1027 kg and the radius of Jupiter is 7.14 ✕ 107 m. (Dont use scientific notation, use regular notation, example 50000)A satellite is orbiting the earth in low orbit (160 km above the surface of the earth). If the universal gravitational constant is 6.67 x 10^-11 m^3/kg x s^2 the mass of the earth is 5.972 x 10^24 kg and the radius of the earth is 6371 km, what speed must the satellite travel in order to maintain the low earth orbit?A certain quaternary star system consists of three stars, each of mass m, moving in the same circular orbit of radius r about a central star of mass M. The stars orbit in the same sense, and are positioned one-third of a revolution apart from each other. Show that the period of each of the three stars is given by the following expression.

- The spaceship Palomino approaches star XYZ to study it by going into a circular orbit of radius 1.0·107 km. All that is known initially is that a planet orbits this star at a distance of 1.86·108 km taking a time of 271 Earth-days to make one full orbit. At what speed should the ship orbit the star at? What is the gravitational acceleration on the Palomino due to this star's gravity? (c) What is the ratio of the mass of star XYZ with that of the Sun? (MSun = 1.987·1030 kg)(a) An exoplanet is in an elliptical orbit around a distant star. At its closest approach, the exoplanet is 0.540 AU from the star and has a speed of 54.0 km/s. When the exoplanet is at its farthest distance from the star of 28.0 AU, what is its speed (in km/s)? (1 AU is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun and is equal to 1.496 × 10-4 m. You may assume that other planets and smaller objects in the star system exert negligible forces on the exoplanet.) km/s (b) What If? A comet is in a highly elliptical orbit around the same star. The comet's greatest distance from the star is 21,300 times larger than its closest distance to the star. The comet's speed at its greatest distance is 2.90 × 10¬2 km/s. What is the speed (in km/s) of the comet at its closest approach? km/sb) An exoplanet orbits a non-rotating, 1.79019x 100 kg star. Analysing through the use of geodesics, determine the time period of the planet to complete one orbit around the G-type star where the eccentricity of the orbit is approximately 0 and the distance between the star and planet is 3.41382 x 10° m.
