A man-made satellite orbits the earth in a circular orbit that has a radius of 32000 km. The mass of the Earth is 5.97e 24 kg. What is the tangential speed of the satellite

= 3521m/s

The tangential speed is approximately 3500 m/s.

Explanation:

F = m * v² ÷ r

Fg = (G * M * m) ÷ r²

(m v²) / r = (G * M * m) / r²

v² = (G * M) / r

v = √( G * M ÷ r)

G * M = 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ * 5.97 * 10²⁴ = 3.98199 * 10¹⁴

r = 32000km = 32 * 10⁶ meters  

G * M / r = 3.98199 * 10¹⁴ ÷ 32 * 10⁶

v = √1.24 * 10⁷  

v = 3521.36m/s

The tangential speed is approximately 3500 m/s.
