A2400-kg satellite is in a circular orbitaround a planet. the
satellite travels with a constant speedof 6.67x10 3 m/s. what is
the acceleration of the satellite? determine the magnitude of the
gravitational force exerted on thesatellite by the planet.

Answer

given,

mass of satellite = 2400 Kg

speed of the satellite =  6.67 x 10³ m/s

acceleration of satellite = ?

gravitational force of the satellite will be equal to the centripetal force

Assuming the radius of circular orbit = 8.92 x 10⁶ m

now,

F = 11970.11 N

acceleration,

  a = 4.98 m/s²

i think it'll be 7,000

i guess the game developers wanted to give off a more gamey/cartoony feeling without trying to copy fortnite exactly
