A satellite is placed in an elongated elliptical (not circular)
orbit around the Earth. At the point in its orbit where it is
closest to the Earth, it is a distance of 1.00 × 10^6
m from the surface (not the center) of the Earth,
and is moving at a velocity of 5.14 km/s. At the
point in its orbit when it is furthest from the Earth it is a
