Please HELP A 500 kg satellite experiences a gravitational force of 3000 N, while moving in a circular orbit around the earth. Determine the radius of the circular orbit. Determine the speed of the satellite. Determine the period of the orbit.

Given that,

Mass of satellite = 500 kg

Gravitational force = 3000 N

We need to calculate the radius of the circular orbit

Using formula of gravitational force

Where, G = gravitational constant

R = radius of earth

h = radius of the circular orbit

M = mass of earth

m = mass of satellite

Put the value into the formula

(II). We need to calculate the speed of the satellite

Using formula of velocity

Put the value into the formula

(III). We need to calculate the period of the orbit

Using formula of  time period

Put the value into the formula

Hence, (I). The radius of the circular orbit is

(II). The speed of the satellite is 8.8 km/s.

(III). The period of the orbit is 1.00 hr.

the diagram which shows forces as either balanced = same speed or unbalanced = accelerarting
