What will be the velocity of a satellite which is revolving around the earth in a circular orbit the radius R if the radius is increased from R to RR what will be the velocity?

the velocity will be velocity divided by square root of 2


Why There is no work done when satellite rotate around earth?

With satellites, the object is not to escape Earth's gravity, but to balance it. Orbital velocity is the velocity needed to achieve balance between gravity's pull on the satellite and the inertia of the satellite's motion -- the satellite's tendency to keep going.This is approximately 17,000 mph (27,359 kph) at an altitude of 150 miles (242 km). Without gravity, the satellite's inertia would carry it off into space. Even with gravity, if the intended satellite goes too fast, it will eventually fly away. On the other hand, if the satellite goes too slowly, gravity will pull it back to Earth.At the correct orbital velocity, gravity exactly balances the satellite's inertia, pulling down toward Earth's center just enough to keep the path of the satellite curving like Earth's curved surface, rather than flying off in a straight line.


Low Earth orbit satellite period of revolution?

umm if my calculations are correct the period of a low earth orbit (LEO) is approximately 40000000000069 years. as extrapolated from Kepler's equation.

Is the critical velocity equal to orbital velocity of satellite?

Balance of force of gravity by centripetal forceYes, for any given orbital radius (r) only one velocity will give stable orbit, this is called the critical velocity.Pick your orbital radius and satellite mass (m)Use Gmm / r2 to calculate gravitational force (f),then find velocity from : v = sq root ( (r * f ) / m)

What is critical speed of pump?

Critical velocity is the speed that a falling object reaches when gravity and air resistance equalize on the object.when a liquid posses streamlined motion and its velocity is less than certain limiting velocity is called critical velocity for fluids and critical velocity for satellites can be defined as the velocity will give stable orbit, this is called the critical velocity for satellites
