Calculate the gravitational acceleration of a satellite that is in orbit at a distance of 1.0 x 10^8 meters from the center of the Earth (Mass of Earth is 5.972 × 10^24).

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of Earth,

We need to find the gravitational acceleration of a satellite that is in orbit at a distance of from the center of the Earth.

Radius of earth is 6,371 km

The formula used to find the gravitational acceleration at a distance is given by :

R = r+d

So, the gravitational acceleration is .

e

explanation:

there is no change in the electric potential energy as it is in rest on both conditions.
