An artificial satellite moving in a circular orbit around the earth has a total (kinetic + potential) energy ${E_0}$. Its potential energy is
$ - {E_0}$
$1.5\,{E_0}$
$2\,{E_0}$
${E_0}$
An artificial satellite moving in a circular orbit around the earth has a total (kinetic + potential) energy ${E_0}$. Its potential energy is
Potential energy $= 2 ×$ (Total energy) = $2{E_0}$
Because we know = $U = \frac{{ - GMm}}{r}$ and ${E_0} = \frac{{ - GMm}}{{2r}}$
