How fast must an object be moving to become a satellite orbiting 2000 m above the Moon (mass of the Moon: 7.35 x 1022 kg and the universal gravitational constant: 6.67 x 10-11)?

Answer 1

The speed required for an object to become a satellite orbiting 2000 m above the Moon is approximately 1.6 km/s. This can be calculated using the equation v = sqrt(GM/r), where G is the universal gravitational constant, M is the mass of the Moon, and r is the radius of the orbit (2000 m).
