Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If a satellite orbits Earth at a height where the radius of orbit is 2R (twice the Earth's radius), calculate the gravitational force acting on it if its mass is 500 kg.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember, you need to account for the total distance from Earth's center to the satellite.

Question 2

Calculate how much work it would take to move a mass of 100 kg from the Earth's surface to an altitude of 10 km, considering gravitational potential.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use the potential energy formula for work done against gravity.
