A ball is tied to a string and swung so that the ball follows a circular path that lies in a horizontal plane.

Problem 05.090 - Moving a satellite around Earth-DEPENDENT MULTI-PART PROBLEM - ASSIGN ALL PARTS A satellite travels around Earth in uniform circular motion at an altitude of 35,799 km above Earth's surface. The satellite is in geosynchronous orbit. In the below figure, the satellite moves counterclockwise (ABCDA). (State directions in terms of the x- and y-axes.) The radius of Earth is 6371 km. B CO Earth D A Problem 05.090.b-1- Magnitude of the satellite's average velocity What is the magnitude of the satellite's average velocity for one quarter of an orbit, starting at A and ending at B?

You are a visitor aboard the New International Space Station, which is in a circular orbit around the Earth with an orbital speed of vo = 2.72 km/s. The station is equipped with a high velocity projectile launcher, which can be used to launch small projectiles in various directions at high speeds. Most of the time, the projectiles either enter new orbits around the Earth or eventually fall down and hit the Earth. However, as you know from your physics courses at the Academy, projectiles launched with a sufficiently great initial speed can travel away from the Earth indefinitely, always slowing down but never falling back to Earth. With what minimum total speed, relative to the Earth, would projectiles need to be launched from the station in order to "escape" in this way? For reference, recall that the radius of the Earth is RE = 6370000 m, the mass of the Earth is MẸ = 5.98 × 1024 kg, the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Earth is g = 9.81 m/s and the universal…

The orbit of the moon around the earth is approximately circular, with a mean radius of 3.85 x 108 m. It takes 27.3 days for the moon to complete one revolution around the earth. Find the average orbital speed of the moon.

Two satellites travel along the same circular orbit of radius  4.7*10^4 km centred at the Earth. The distance between the satellites, measured along their orbit, is 59, 000  km. Determine the angular separation of the two satellites in radians.

A satellite of mass m= 100 kg is in a circular orbit at a height h = R above the surface of the earth where R is the radius of the earth. Find (a) the acceleration due to gravity at any point on the path of the satellite, (b) the gravitational force on the satellite and (c) the centripetal force on the satellite.

You are exploring a distant planet. When your spaceship is in a circular orbit at a distance of 630 km above the planet's surface, the ship's orbital speed is 5500 m/s. By observing the planet, you determine its radius to be 4.48×106m. You then land on the surface and, at a place where the ground is level, launch a small projectile with initial speed 12.6 m/s at an angle of 30.8∘ above the horizontal. If resistance due to the planet's atmosphere is negligible, what is the horizontal range of the projectile?

A train that is travelling counterclockwise (starting at the 3 o'clock position) on a circular track with a radius of 306 feet, subtends an angle of 2 radians. a) In which quadrant is the train in at that moment? b) What is the horizontal position (measured in feet) at that moment relative to the center of the track?

The maximum distance of the earth from the sun is 9.3 x 107 miles. The minimum distance is 9.1 x 107. The sun is at one focus of the elliptical orbit. Find the distance from the sun to the other foci of the ellipse.
