(choose chapter or problem)

The radius r of the orbit of a satellite is given by r = 3 GM t _2 4 2 , where G is the universal gravitational constant, M is the mass of the central object, and t is the time it takes the satellite to complete one orbit. Find the radius of the orbit if G is 6.67 10 -11 N m 2 / kg 2 , M is 5.98 10 24 kg, and t is 2.6 1 0 6 seconds. 50
