The orbital radius is:
Explanation:
The problem is asking to find the radius of the orbit of a satellite around a planet, given the orbital speed of the satellite.
For a satellite in orbit around a planet, the gravitational force provides the required centripetal force to keep it in circular motion, therefore we can write:
where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the mass of the planet
m is the mass of the satellite
r is the radius of the orbit
v is the speed of the satellite
Re-arranging the equation, we find:

Answer:
(b) the point charge is moved outside the sphere
Explanation:
Gauss' Law states that the electric flux of a closed surface is equal to the enclosed charge divided by permittivity of the medium.
According to this law, any charge outside the surface has no effect at all. Therefore (a) is not correct.
If the point charge is moved off the center, the points on the surface close to the charge will have higher flux and the points further away from the charge will have lesser flux. But as a result, the total flux will not change, because the enclosed charge is the same.
Therefore, (c) and (d) is not correct, because the enclosed charge is unchanged.
