To teach you how to find the parameters characterizing an object in a circular orbit around a much heavier body like the earth. the motivation for isaac newton to discover his laws of motion was to explain the properties of planetary orbits that were observed by tycho brahe and analyzed by johannes kepler. a good starting point for understanding this (as well as the speed of the space shuttle and the height of geostationary satellites) is the simplest orbit--a circular one. this problem concerns the properties of circular orbits for a satellite orbiting a planet of mass m. for all parts of this problem, where appropriate, use g for the universal gravitational constant. part a) find the orbital speed v for a satellite in a circular orbit of radius r. (express the orbital speed in terms of g, m, and r),part b) find the kinetric energy k of a satellite with mass m in a circular orbit with radius r. (express your answer in terms of m, m, g, and r).part d) find the orbital period t. (express your answer in terms of g, m, r, and pi).

Which of the following correctly describes what happens when an atomic bomb explodes? small pieces of fissionable material are joined and form a body with a mass greater than the critical mass, the relative number of neutrons escaping decreases, and a chain reaction and explosion result. large pieces of fissionable matter are brought together quickly and form a body with a mass smaller than the critical mass, the relative number of escaping neutrons increases, and a chain reaction and explosion result.
