A satellite used in a cellular telephone network has a mass of 2050 kg and is in a circular orbit at a height of 880 km above the surface of the earth.
Part A
What is the gravitational force Fgrav on the satellite?
Take the gravitational constant to be G = 6.67×10−11 N⋅m2/kg2 , the mass of the earth to be me = 5.97×1024 kg , and the radius of the Earth to be re = 6.38×106 m .
Express your answer in newtons.
