How to solve this problem in sinusoidal motion? (Satellite orbiting the Earth)
I tried to solve by calculating: ## \omega = \frac{v}{x} = 3100/ (4.2 \times10^7) ##, Which makes the frequency so small: ## f = 2 \pi \times 3100/ (4.2 \times10^7) \sim 10^{-5} ~ s^{-1} ## And also the acceleration and velocity. So I think there is a mistake in my solution. Any help to...- Safinaz
