An engineer wants a satellite to orbit the earth with a period of 52 hours. Hint: You need to find an equation for r in terms of givens (T, M and Gonly), Start by setting your two equations for acceleration equal, Then rearrange the orbital period equation to solve for Tand substitue. Finally, solve for rand plug in! You may enter answers in scientific notation as shown: 1.23 x 10 -1,23e5 At what orbital radius must the satellite orbit? How far is this above the earth's surface? earth data mass: 5.97 x 1024kg At what speed does the satellite need to orbit? m/s radius: 6.37 x 10m ****** .....
