A satellite moves in orbit about the Earth at a height of 9500 km above Earth's surface. Find a) the velocity of the satellite; b) it's period of rotation; c) the magnitude of the Earth's gravitational force on the satellite if it's mass is 2500 kg; d) if the satellite's velocity is increased by 20% at what height must it now orbit the Earth?

Explain D step by step please.

We want to place a satellite moving in a circular orbit 500 km above the earth's surface in a circular orbit 1000 km above the earth's surface. To do this, first give the satellite a speed increase of ikenv while it is in the 1st green orbit and place it in the 2nd yellow elliptical orbit, and then, when the elliptical orbit reaches a distance of 1000 km from the ground, it gives it a second Δv 'velocity and allows...
