Distance of artificial satellite (d)= 3400 km
Radius of earth(R) = 6400 km = 6.4×10⁶ m
Radius of orbit(r) = R+d = 10,000 km = 10⁷ m
g = 9.8 m/s²
Orbital velocity, V_o=\ ?Vo= ?
Period of revolution, T = ?
(i) Orbital velocity
V_o=
⇒Vo= 9.8×10^7(6.4×10^6)2
⇒Vo = 40.14×10^6Vo = 6.33×10^3 m/s
(ii) Time period
T=
