Question

d. A satellite is orbiting the earth at a steady speed of 8 km/s. How long<br />will it take to complete a single orbit with a distance of 40,000 km?​
the answer is 1.3 hrs please give the right solution ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Time required to complete one orbit = 1.39 hrs  (approx.) or 1.38 (bar on 8) hrs

Explanation:

s = 40,000 km

v = 8 km/h

v = s/t

This implies, t = s/v = 40000/8 = 5000 s

t = 5000/3600 = 1.38 (bar on 8) hrs = 1.39 hrs (approx.)
