A 7600 kg satellite is in a circular orbit around Earth at a height of 2300 km above Earth's surface. What is this satellite's speed

6779.7m/s

Explanation:

Using

GMm/(Re +h)² = mv²/ (Re+h)

So making v subject we have

V= √GM/Re+h

So

V = √ 6.67*10^-11 x 5.97*10^24/(6371+2300)*10^3

V= 6779.7m/s

Note h = height of satellite

Re= radius of the earth

M = mass of the earth

the independent variable, or the one that is intentionally manipulated is the speed.

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.
