Two Earth satellites, A and B, each of mass m = 980 kg , are launched into circular orbits around the Earth's center. Satellite A orbits at an altitude of 4100 km , and satellite B orbits at an altitude of 12100 km The radius of Earth RE is 6370 km. (a) What is the ratio of the potential energy of satellite B to that of satellite A, in orbit?
(b) What is the ratio of the kinetic energy of satellite B to that of satellite A, in orbit?
(c) Which satellite has the greater total energy if each has a mass of 14.6 kg?
(d) By how much?
