Asatellite that goes around the earth once every 24 hours (86,400 s) is called a geosynchronous satellite. if a geosynchronous satellite is in an equatorial orbit, its position appears stationary with respect to a ground station, and it is known as a geostationary satellite.

find the radius (as measured from the center of the earth) of the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite that circles the earth. (note that r is measured from the center of the earth, not the surface.) you may use the following constants:

the universal gravitational constant g is 6.667*10^-11 n*m*2/kg^2.
the mass of the earth is 5.98*10^24 kg.

42244138.951 m

Explanation:

G = Gravitational constant = 6.667 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

r = Radius of orbit from center of earth

M = Mass of Earth = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

m = Mass of Satellite

The satellite revolves around the Earth at a constant speed

Speed = Distance / Time

The distance is the perimeter of the orbit

The Centripetal force of the satellite is balanced by the universal gravitational force

The radius as measured from the center of the Earth) of the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite that circles the earth is 42244138.951 m

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.

because if the tool that you are using is not balanced it there would be false mass.
