Hello students, let's solve this question here.
00:08
The perigee altitude value is given as 325 km and the apogee altitude is equal to 1560 km and radius of the ear i .e.
00:29
Re is equal to 6378 km.
00:35
Therefore, the perigee distance from the center of the earth is rp is equal to 6378 plus 325 and it is equal to 6730 km.
00:53
Now, the apogee distance i .e.
00:56
Ra is equal to 6378 plus 1560 and it is equal to 7938 km.
01:07
Now, the semi -major axis of orbit i .e.
01:10
A is equal to ra plus rp divided by 2.
01:16
Therefore, a will be equal to 7320 .5 km by substituting both these values.
01:28
Now, the energy of the orbit i .e.
01:31
E is equal to minus gmm divided by 2 into a where m is the mass of earth and m is the mass of satellite and a is already we found out let's substitute that is minus g into mm divided by 2 into 7320 .5.
01:54
Therefore, we can write gm will be equal to 3 .986 into 10 raised to 14 meter cube second square...
