(i) What is the minimum launch speed required to put a satellite into a circular orbit?
(ii) How many times higher is the energy required to launch a satellite into a polar orbit than that necessary to put it into an Equatorial one?
(iii) What initial speed must a space probe have if it is to leave the gravitational field of the Earth?
(iv) Which requires a higher initial energy for the space probe-leaving the solar system or hitting the Sun?
