  • question_answer
     A satellite is to revolve round the earth in a circle of radius 8000 km. The speed at which this satellite be projected into an orbit, will be                           [Pb. PET 2002]

    A)             \[3\,\,km/s\]     

    B)             \[16\,\,km/s\]

    C)             \[7.15\,\,km/s\]

    D)               \[8\,\,km/s\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

        \[{{v}_{0}}=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}=\sqrt{\frac{g{{R}^{2}}}{r}}=\sqrt{\frac{10\times {{(64\times {{10}^{5}})}^{2}}}{8000\times {{10}^{3}}}}\]             \[=71.5\times {{10}^{2}}\,m/s=7.15\,km/s\]
