To determine the overall reliability of the solar instrument, we can calculate the probability of all components functioning simultaneously. The overall reliability is the product of the individual reliabilities: ( 0.92 \times 0.87 \times 0.64 \approx 0.514 ). Therefore, the instrument has an overall reliability of about 51.4%, meaning that there is a 48.6% chance that at least one component will fail and the instrument will not function.

What is a negative impact on the satellite?

A negative impact on a satellite could be damage caused by space debris colliding with the satellite, which can result in malfunctions or complete loss of the satellite. Additionally, exposure to high levels of radiation in space can degrade the satellite's components over time, affecting its performance.

When does a satellite have the greatest acceleration?

When it is closest to the planet.One of the components of the acceleration, the normal acceleration, is equal to v2/r, where v is the satellite's speed and r is the radius of the current orbit followed by the satellite. So, the smaller the radius, the higher the acceleration.
