Section 13.6 Satellite Orbits and EnergiesThree satellites
Chapter 13, Problem 21E(choose chapter or problem)
II Three satellites orbit a planet of radius \(R\), as shown in FIGURE EX13.21. Satellites \(\mathrm{S}_{1}\) and \(\mathrm{S}_{3}\) have mass \(m\). Satellite \(\mathrm{S}_{2}\) has mass \(2 \mathrm{~m}\). Satellite \(\mathrm{S}_{1}\) orbits in 250 minutes and the force on \(\mathrm{S}_{1}\) is \(10,000 \mathrm{~N}\).
a. What are the periods of \(\mathrm{S}_{2}\) and \(\mathrm{S}_{3}\) ?
b. What are the forces on \(\mathrm{S}_{2}\) and \(\mathrm{S}_{3}\) ?
c. What is the kinetic-energy ratio \(K_{1} / K_{3}\) for \(\mathrm{S}_{1}\) and \(\mathrm{S}_{3}\)?
