neg. No. Question Three (30 Marks) a) The satellite passes through perigee at 12:32.30.0225 and the signal from the same satellite was transmitted at 12:32.30.2250. i. Determine mean anomaly of the satellite if the orbital Major axis is 45,000km and Earth's gravitational constant and is equal to 3.986005 x 10¹ m³ s-² ii. Given the semi-Minor axis to be 21500km determine True anomaly of the satellite. iii. Determine the distance 'r' from the center of the Earth to the satellite assuming SInE = 1 iv. Determine the space coordinates of the satellite at time of signal transmission
