A satellite is in a circular orbit around the Earth at an
altitude of 3.02 106 m.
(a) Find the period of the orbit. (Hint: Modify Kepler's third
law so it is suitable for objects orbiting the Earth rather than
the Sun. The radius of the Earth is 6.38 106 m, and the mass of the
Earth is 5.98 1024 kg.) h
(b) Find the speed of the satellite. km/s
(c) Find the acceleration of the satellite.
m/s2 toward the center of the earth
