A remote sensing satellite of earth revolves in a circular orbit at a height of \(0.25 \times10^6~\text{m}\) above the surface of the earth. If Earth’s radius is \(6.38\times10^6~\text{m}\) and \(g=9.8~\text{ms}^{-2}\), then the orbital speed of the satellite is:
1. \(7.76~\text{kms}^{-1}\)
2. \(8.56~\text{kms}^{-1}\)
3. \(9.13~\text{kms}^{-1}\)
4. \(6.67~\text{kms}^{-1}\)

A satellite S is moving in an elliptical orbit around the earth. If the mass of the satellite is very small as compared to the mass of the earth, then:

If $v_e$ is the escape velocity and $v_o$ is the orbital velocity of a satellite for orbit close to the earth's surface, then these  are related by:

Rohini satellite is at a height of 500 km and Insat-B is at a height of 3600 km from the surface of the earth. The relation between their orbital velocity (\(v_R,~v_i\)) is:

1. \(v_R>v_i\)

2. \(v_R<v_i\)

3. \(v_R=v_i\)

4. No relation
