On the earth surface g = GM/R^2
 And at the hieight h
 g" = GM/ [R+h] ^2
 g" = R^2/ [ R+h]^2 * g
 g" = {R/ [ R+h] }^2 * g
 g" = {6378/ 7083}^2 * 9.81 = 7.95 m/s^2
 --------------------------------------
T^2 = 4π^2 (R+h) /g"
T^2 = 4π^2 *7083 /7.95 
T = 187.54s = 0.052 hour.
 ========================
 Part B
 v = 2*π *[R+h] / T
 v = 2*π *[7.083] / 187.54s
 v = 0.24 km /s

How would doubling the mass of Earth affect the gravity we experience?​
N76 [4]
The strength of the gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors, mass and distance. the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled. increases, the force of gravity decreases.
