Asatellite is in a circular orbit around mars, which has a mass m = 6.40 × 1023 kg and radius r = 3.40 ×106 m.

a) derive an expression for the orbital speed assuming that the orbital radius is r.

b) derive an expression for the orbital period assuming that the orbital radius is r.

c) the orbital period of the satellite can be synchronized with mars’ rotation, whose period is 24.6 hours. determine the required orbital radius for this to occur.

d) determine the escape speed from the surface of mars.

An athlete swings a ball, connected to the end of a chain, in a horizontal circle. the athlete is able to rotate the ball at the rate of 8.13 rev/s when the length of the chain is 0.600 m. when he increases the length to 0.900 m, he is able to rotate the ball only 6.04 rev/s. (a) which rate of rotation gives the greater speed for the ball? 6.04 rev/s 8.13 rev/s (b) what is the centripetal acceleration of the ball at 8.13 rev/s? m/s2 (c) what is the centripetal acceleration at 6.04 rev/s? m/s2
