L My Drve Scientists want × A Mass C Secure https://www.flipit unititem/D 36101208kenrollmentiD 326265 The Coor Scientists want to place a 2900 kg satellite in orbit around Mars. They plan to have the satellite orbit a distance equal to 1.7 times the radius of Mars above the surface of the planet. Here is some information that will help solve this problem: Mmars 6.4191 x 10g G 6.67428 x 10Nmk 1) What its the force of attraction between Mars and the satellite 1476 92 Twos N Submit currently have 5 submissions for this question.

Explanation / Answer

v = sqrt (GM/r)

here G is gravitational constant. M is mass of mars and r is the total distance

r = rmars + 1.7rmars

r = 2.7rmars

r = 2.7*3.397e6

r = 9171900 m

v = sqrt (6.67e-11*6.4191e23 / 9171900 )

v = 2160.57 m/s
