Flipping Physics Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Name: Altitude of Geostationary Orbit (a special case of Geosynchronous Orbit)Category: Circular Motion & GravityDate Added: 2018-01-07Submitter: Flipping Physics Calculate the altitude of a satellite in geosynchronous orbit or geostationary orbit. Want Lecture Notes? This is an AP Physics 1 topic. Content Times: 0:11 What is geosynchronous orbit? 0:47 Drawing the free body diagram and starting to solve the problem 3:02 Solving for the satellite’s angular velocity 4:05 Identifying the masses and radii 5:25 Defining “r” and solving for altitude 6:29 The physics works!
