The correct answer would be 6√v. When the satellite is moved to an orbital radius of 6r, the velocity will increase proportionally. Since the velocity is directly proportional to the square root of the orbital radius, multiplying the original velocity v by the square root of 6 will give the new velocity at the larger orbital radius.
