33. Putting a satellite in orbit The strength of Earth's gravitational field varies with the distance r from Earth's center, and the magni- tude of the gravitational force experienced by a satellite of mass m during and after launch is mMG F(r) - Here, M - 5.975 x 104 kg is Earth's mass, G - 6.6720 x 10-"N-m² kg is the universal gravitational constant, and r is measured in meters. The work it takes to lift a 1000-kg satellite from Earth's surface to a circular orbit 35,780 km above Earth's center is therefore given by the integral 35,7600 1000MG -dr joules. Work = Evaluate the integral. The lower limit of integration is Earth's radi- us in meters at the launch site. (This calculation does not take into account energy spent lifting the launch vehicle or energy spent bringing the satellite to orbit velocity.)
