1 point 14. Which factor is not needed hen calculating the velocity of a satellite
orbiting a planet?
the mass of the satellite
the orbital radius of the satellite
the mass of the planet
the universal gravitational constant
Pls help I will give extra points

i. the mass of the satellite will not be required in this calculation

Explanation:

When a satellite is orbiting a planet, it experiences two forces. The centripetal force and the gravitational force that the planet exerts on the satellite. In order for the satellite to keep in orbit, the centripetal force and the gravitational force must be equal.

The expression for the centripetal force is:

F_c = (m_s)v² / R

where

m_s is the mass of the satellite

R is the radius of the satellite's orbit

v is the velocity that the satellite travels with around the planet

The expression for the Gravitational force is:

F_g = (G M_p m_s) / R²

where

G is the universal gravitational constant

M_p is the mass of the planet

m_s is the mass of the satellite

R is the radius of the satellite's orbit

Thus, equating the two forces together, we get:

(G M_p m_s) / R² = (m_s)v² / R

We can cancel out m_s since it is a common factor on both sides.

Thus,

(G M_p) / R² = v² / R ⇒ M_p = v²R / G

Therefore, the mass of the satellite is not required to calculate the mass of the planet.

Explanation:

Hope this helps:)

atomic number of carbon is 6

electronic configuration of carbon is 1s²2s²2p²
