5. An artificial satellite takes 24hours to complete one circular
orbit of length 172800km. Calculate the speed and velocity
after 1 revolution.
Answers
D = 172800 km
T = 24 hours
SPEED =
=
Displacement = Final position - initial position
Since it traveled in a circular path and it stopped at the initial position
Displacement = 0
Velocity =
=
Answer:
The speed and velocity after 1 revolution is 7200 km/hr and v = 2292.99 km/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
- Time taken = 24 hour
- length of orbit = 172800 km
Firstly, We have to calculate the radius of the circular orbit-
then, radius 'r' =
where,
circumference is equal to the length of the orbit
π = 3.14
r =
r =
r = 27515.92 km
Therefore, diameter = 2r
= 2×27515.92
= 55031.84 km
And the diameter of orbit is equal to displacement
therefore, displacement = 55031.84 km
Now,
Calculate the speed of of satellite 's' =
s =
s = 7200 km/hr
Calculate the velocity of satellite 'v' =
v =
v = 2292.99 km/hr
