Radial acceleration is given by

a_{rad}= \frac{v^2}{r}
where 

v=r \omega
then

a_{rad}= \frac{r^2 \omega^2}{r}=r\omega^2

Now

70\omega^2=3.90 \frac{m}{s^2}  \\  \\ \omega= \sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70} }

Using the relation

\omega=2 \pi f

2 \pi f= \sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70} }\\  \\ f= \frac{1}{2 \pi}\sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70} }Hz

Putting into rpm

\frac{60}{2 \pi}\sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70}} =2.254rpm

A geosynchronous Earth satellite is one that has an orbital period of precisely 1 day. Such orbits are useful for communication
koban [17]

Answer:

r = 4.24x10⁴ km.  

     

Explanation:

To find the radius of such an orbit we need to use Kepler's third law:

\frac{T_{1}^{2}}{T_{2}^{2}} = \frac{r_{1}^{3}}{r_{2}^{3}}

<em>where T₁: is the orbital period of the geosynchronous Earth satellite = 1 d, T₂: is the orbital period of the moon = 0.07481 y, r₁: is the radius of such an orbit and r₂: is the orbital radius of the moon = 3.84x10⁵ km.                           </em>                              

From equation (1), r₁ is:

r_{1} = r_{2} \sqrt[3] {(\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}})^{2}}                            

r_{1} = 3.84\cdot 10^{5} km \sqrt[3] {(\frac{1 d}{0.07481 y \cdot \frac{365 d}{1 y}})^{2}}      

r_{1} = 4.24 \cdot 10^{4} km      

Therefore, the radius of such an orbit is 4.24x10⁴ km.

I hope it helps you!
