(- GM e m / r )= P.E. v =√( GM e / r ) ω=(2 π/ T ) r uparrow T uparrow ω downarrow

Q. An earth satellite is moved from one stable circular orbit to another larger and stable circular orbit. The following quantities increase for the satellite as a resulf of this change

gravitational potential energy

angular velocity

linear orbital velocity

centripetal acceleration

$\frac{- G M _{e} m}{r} =$ P.E.
$v = \frac{G M _{e}}{r}$
$ω = \frac{2 π}{T} r ↑ T ↑ ω ↓$
