Question

If the height of a satellite completing one revolution around the earth in T seconds is h1 meter, then what would be the height of a satellite taking 2 √2 Tseconds for one revolution? Ans : R + 2h₁ , Solve the problem

Answer 1

In the given problem statement the time taken to revolve around the earth is given from which the height of the satellite should be found.

The time taken by second satellite is also given in seconds.
