A satellite, initially at rest in deep space, separates into two pieces, which move away from each other. One piece has a rest mass of 190 kg and moves away with a speed 0.280c, and the second piece moves in the opposite direction with a speed 0.600c. What is the rest mass of the second piece

Determine the time it takes for a satellite to orbit the earth in a circular "near-earth" orbit. the definition of "near-earth" orbit is one which is at a height above the surface of the earth which is small compared to the radius of the earth, so that you may take the acceleration due to gravity as essentially the same as that on the surface. does your result depend on the mass of the satellite?
