The central attractive force F on an earth satellite can have no moment about the center O
Question:
The central attractive force F on an earth satellite can have no moment about the center O of the earth. For the particular elliptical orbit with major and minor axes as shown, a satellite will have a velocity of 33 880 km/h at the perigee altitude of 390 km. Determine the velocity of the satellite at point B and at apogee A. The radius of the earth is 6371 km.
