Answer:
Critical Velocity of Satellite. The constant horizontal velocity given to the satellite so as to put it into stable circular orbit around the earth is called as critical velocity and is denoted by Vc. It is also known as orbital speed or proper speed.
To maintain an orbit that is 22,223 miles (35,786 kilometers) above Earth, the satellite must orbit at a speed of about 7,000 mph (11,300 kph).
