At a particular point in orbit a satellite in an elliptical orbit has a gravitational PE of 6000 MJ with respect to Earth's surface and a KE of 5000 MJ. Later in its orbit, the satellite 's PE is 7000 MJ. What is its KE at that point? Explain.
(a) You wish to move a square box (0.3m by 0.3m) by 1m across a pavement. Given that the
box has of a mass of 80kg, by which way, rolling or sliding, will you need more energy? Why?
The coefficient of friction between the pavement and the box is 0.6 (Hint: consider the energy
used to roll equals to the work done to raise the centre of mass). Gravitational acceleration g
9.81m/s² (?

(b) Based on the above, what would be the value of the coefficient of friction to yield the same
energy by sliding and rolling when moving the box by the same length? (?
