What else can I help you with?
The speed that must be reached by a satellite or spacecraft for it to go into orbit is called?
Escape velocity
How does a spacecraft enter into a planets orbit?
When spacecraft like the Hubble telescope enter a planet's orbit, it is lifted by a rocket. Once it enters the orbit, the rocket drops away and the spacecraft is projected through the planet's orbit.
If a spacecraft is in orbit around the earth and the its speed increases enough to destroy the balance between centrifugal force and gravity what happens to the spacecraft?
it travels into space
What country got the first spacecraft into orbit?
name the most recent spacecraft to orbit venus name the most recent spacecraft to orbit venus
How long did the unmanned spacecraft to reach mars?
Eight years depending on where in orbit they are and speed the craft is going
What is the average speed of a spacecraft orbiting mars if the spacecraft takes 2.2 h to complete an orbit that is 26500 km long?
Approx 12045 km per hour.
What was the cruising speed of the Voskhod spacecraft?
It varied with where in orbit it was. It could reach speeds of 8 km per second.
What is the speed of a spacecraft?
To orbit the Earth, a speed of 7.9 kilometers/second is required. To escape Earth's gravity, an initial speed of 11.2 kilometers/second is required. To travel to distant planets, the initial speed must be still higher.
What is speed that a spacecraft must reach to orbit the Earth is what?
The speed that a spacecraft must reach to leave Earth forever is 25,000 miles per hour. This is called "escape velocity", and this is the initial velocity required to leave the Earth behind completely. However, the concept of "escape velocity" is fundamentally flawed, being based on the concept of a shell being fired from a giant cannon. A rocket with enough fuel may leave the Earth behind at any speed desired. The required velocity to attain orbit depends on the altitude of the orbit; curiously, lower orbits require more speed, while higher orbits require less speed - but more fuel to get there! At the altitude of the ISS, an object must be going at about 18,000 MPH to be in a circular orbit.
The clementine spacecraft was placed in what orbit?
lunar orbit
Does the weight of space junk affect its orbital speed?
If something is in orbit it's orbital speed is independent of its mass. Be it a gram or a tonne, it's speed depends only on its orbit; if it had a different speed it would be in a different orbit ( or none at all).
The circling of the spacecraft around the moon is called its?
The circling of the spacecraft around the moon is called its lunar orbit.
