Question

А geostationary satellite moves in an orbit of radius 6300km. Calculate the speed with which it moves in the orbit [π=22÷7]​

Answer 1

15.3 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius of orbit= 6400+6300 = 12700 km

Circumference of orbit= 2*(22/7)*12700 =79796.45*10^3 m

Now,

Speed= Distance / Time

= 79796.45*10^3/(24*60*3600)

= 15.3 m/s
