Hi All,
Assume we have a package that we want it in an orbit with highest possible speed. In which orbit (low,mid,high) the package will rotate faster ? Due to smaller distance, low Earth orbit should allow more speed but there is also more air friction there. What would be the mathematical relation to derive rotational speed dependent on other variables? What kind of parameters should be introduced for a more realistic description of the problem?
Thank you.
