An artificial satellite moving in a circular orbit at a distance $h$ from the centre of the Earth has a total energy $E_0$. Then,its potential energy is

The figure shows the variation of energy with the orbit radius of a body in circular planetary motion. Find the correct statement about the curves $A, B$ and $C$.

Choose the correct alternative:
$(a)$ If the zero of potential energy is at infinity,the total energy of an orbiting satellite is negative of its kinetic/potential energy.
$(b)$ The energy required to launch an orbiting satellite out of Earth's gravitational influence is more/less than the energy required to project a stationary object at the same height (as the satellite) out of Earth's influence.

$A$ satellite of $10^3 \text{ kg}$ mass is revolving in a circular orbit of radius $2R$. If $\frac{10^4 R}{6} \text{ J}$ of energy is supplied to the satellite,it would revolve in a new circular orbit of radius: (use $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$,$R = \text{radius of earth}$) (in $R$)

An artificial satellite moves in a circular orbit around the earth. The total energy of the satellite is given by $E$. The potential energy of the satellite is

$A$ launching vehicle carrying an artificial satellite of mass $m$ is set for launch on the surface of the earth of mass $M$ and radius $R$. If the satellite is intended to move in a circular orbit of radius $7R$,the minimum energy required to be spent by the launching vehicle on the satellite is ($G$ is the gravitational constant).
