A satellite is in orbit 3.110106 m from the center of Earth. The mass of Earth is 5.98011024 kg Calculate the orbital period of the satellite.

9194.4278 seconds

Explanation:

Orbital period is given by :

T² = (4π²r³) /GM

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 * 10^-11

M = 5.9801 * 10^24 kg

r = (3.110 * 10^6 m + 6378000 m) =3110000 + 6378000 = 9488000 m

T² = (4π² * 9488000^3) / (6.67* 10^-11 * 5.9801*10^24)

T² = 3.37197 * 10^22 / 398872670000000

T² = 84537504.161415

T = sqrt(84537504.161415)

T = 9194.4278 seconds

you cant move and you feel like someones pushing you down onto your bed it can feel like you want to get up but you just can't it can be extremely scary
