Finding the period of the satellite's orbital motion
Homework Statement I want to find the period of the satellite. Homework Equations mg = mv^2/r The Attempt at a Solution I derive the equation mg = mv^2/r v = sqrt(gr) v = ωr and ω = 2π/T T = 2π/ω = 2πr/v Then, T = 2πr/sqrt(gr) But the answer is 2πr/R * sqrt(r/g). I don't know why? Is...- rwssman

Mechanics Problem from MEXT scholarship 2007
OK, Now I drew a diagram and solve problem number 1 and 2 already, I know that a is pi/2 and b is theta. But in problems number 3,4, and 5 I still don't know whether it is possible or impossible.- rwssman
