... above the Earth’s surface, air resistance and the non-spherical shape of the Earth would be unimportant and a circular path would be feasible. This is similar to an artificial Earth satellite (often abbreviated to ‘satellite’) being put into orbit. If it is sent up in a rocket to the desired height ...

SECTION7.2 Using the Law of Universal Gravitation
... Orbits of Planets and Satellites (cont.) • The equations for speed and period of a satellite can be used for any object in orbit about another. Central body mass will replace mE, and r will be the distance between the centers of the orbiting body and the central body. • If the mass of the central bo ...
