Answer to Problem 5MCQ

Greatest distance = 2095.2 miles

Least distance = 424.8 miles

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Astronomy: A satellite orbiting Earth follows an elliptical path with the center of Earth as one focus. The eccentricity of the orbit is 0.16 and the major axis is 10,440 miles long.

Calculation:

  Advanced Mathematical Concepts: Precalculus with Applications, Student Edition, Chapter 10.5, Problem 5MCQ

Since e=ca0.16=c104402c=835.2

Least distance =ac radius

  5220835.279202=424.8

The least distance = 424.8 miles

Greatest distance cradius+52202095.2

(b)

To determine

To write: The equation of the orbit of the satellite, assuming that the center of the ellipse is the origin and the foci lie on the x -axis.

Answer to Problem 5MCQ

  x252202+y25152.752=1

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Astronomy: A satellite orbiting Earth follows an elliptical path with the center of Earth as one focus. The eccentricity of the orbit is 0.16 and the major axis is 10,440 miles long.

Calculation:

  a2b2=c252202b2=835.22b=5152.75

This gives us:

  x252202+y25152.752=1
