Question

The orbital speed of a satellite revolving around a planet in a circular orbit is v0. If its speed is increased by 10 %, then (A) It will escape from its orbit (B) It will start rotating in an elliptical orbit (C) It will continue to move in the same orbit (D) It will move in a circular orbit of radius 20% more then radius of initial orbit

When the orbital speed of a satellite revolving around a planet is increased by 10 %, it corresponds to the case when v0 < v < ve.

Q. The orbital speed of a satellite revolving around a planet in a circular orbit is $v_{0}$ . If its speed is increased by $10%$ , then

It will escape from its orbit

It will start rotating in an elliptical orbit

It will continue to move in the same orbit

It will move in a circular orbit of radius 20% more then radius of initial orbit

When the orbital speed of a satellite revolving around a planet is increased by $10%$ , it corresponds to the case when $v_{0} < v < v_{e}$ .
