The orbital velocity of the satellite does not depends on its on mass.
Vo=√(GM/R)
where, G= Universal Gravitational Constant
M= Mass of the planet around which
the satellite is revolving
R=The distance of the satellite from the
centre of that planet..

HOPE THIS HELPS YOU ✌️✌️

Does not depend on the mass 'm' of the satellite.

The speed necessary to reach orbit around a celestial body, such as a planet or a star, is known as orbital velocity. This necessitates moving at a steady enough speed to overcome the gravitational attraction of the circling object toward the body's surface.

The orbital speed of an astronomical entity or object in gravitationally bound systems is the rate at which it circles around either the barycenter or the gravitational centre..

Mathemically,

Vo = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R} }

where,

G = Newtons Gravitational constant

M = Mass of the orbiting planet

R = Radius of the orbiting planet
