Answer:
The centripetal force required to keep the satellite in a circular orbit is mv2/r, where v is the orbital velocity of the satellite. The force of gravity that supplies this centripetal force is Gm e m/r2, where me is the mass of the Earth (5.97370 × 1024 kg) and m is the mass of the satellite.
