Answer:
42244138.951 m
Explanation:
G = Gravitational constant = 6.667 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²
r = Radius of orbit from center of earth
M = Mass of Earth = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg
m = Mass of Satellite
The satellite revolves around the Earth at a constant speed
Speed = Distance / Time
The distance is the perimeter of the orbit
The Centripetal force of the satellite is balanced by the universal gravitational force
The radius as measured from the center of the Earth) of the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite that circles the earth is 42244138.951 m
