- Purpose of use
- curiosity
[4] 2018/05/12 21:26 Male / 20 years old level / An engineer / Useful /
- Purpose of use

[6] 2018/04/26 00:08 Male / 20 years old level / A homemaker / Very /
- Purpose of use
- finding orbital energy
[7] 2018/04/25 00:54 Male / Under 20 years old / High-school/ University/ Grad student / A little /
- Purpose of use
- Explaining orbital characteristics for a satellite at different altitudes and speeds.
- Comment/Request
- It would be nice to have a clear statement of assumptions for the calculated results. For example, is orbital radius based on a non-elliptical orbit? If an elliptical orbit is assumed, does the radius represent an average? If an elliptical orbit assumed, does the flight velocity represent an average?
[8] 2018/04/13 00:01 Male / 60 years old level or over / An engineer / Very /
- Purpose of use
- Looking for precise orbital velocity for geosynchronous orbits.
[9] 2018/04/05 07:15 Male / Under 20 years old / High-school/ University/ Grad student / Very /
- Purpose of use
- Determined orbit altitude from period
