Calculate the speed with which a satellite
moves if it is at a height of \(36,000\ km\) from
the Earth’s surface and has an orbital period
of \(24\ h\).
[HINT: Take \(R = 6370\ km\) and convert \(hour\) into \(seconds\) before doing
calculation.]
Answer: [NOTE: Enter up to three decimal places for answers.]
Orbital velocity of a satellite \(=\) \(kms^{-1}\)
Speed \(=\) \(kmh^{-1}\)
