Question
Let G be the universal gravitational constant and mp be the mass of the planet a satellite is orbiting. Which equation could be used to find the velocity of the satellite if it is placed in a low Earth orbit?(1 point)
Responses
v=Gmp(7,000 km)−−−−−−−√v=Gmp(7,000 km)−−−−−−−√
v=Gmp(200 km)−−−−−−√v=Gmp(200 km)−−−−−−√
v=1(200 km)Gmp−−−−√v=1(200 km)Gmp−−−−√
v=1(7,000 km)Gmp−−−−√v=1(7,000 km)Gmp−−−−√

The correct equation to find the velocity of the satellite in a low Earth orbit is v = (G * mp * (200 km))^0.5.
