The height of geostationary satellite from the surface of the earth is 36000 km. Two heavy spheres each of mass 100 kg and radius 0.10 m are placed 1.0 m apart on a horizontal table. ... Since the fields due to two masses are equal and opposite, therefore net gravitational field at P is zero.

approximately 35,786 km
- A geostationary equatorial orbit (GEO) is a circular geosynchronous orbit in the plane of the Earth's equator with a radius of approximately 42,164 km (26,199 mi) (measured from the center of the Earth).
- A satellite in such an orbit is at an altitude of approximately 35,786 km (22,236 mi) above mean sea level.
