Answer:
The kinetic energy is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The radius of the orbit is
The gravitational force is
The kinetic energy of the satellite is mathematically represented as
where v is the speed of the satellite which is mathematically represented as
=>
substituting this into the equation
Now the gravitational force of the planet is mathematically represented as
Where M is the mass of the planet and m is the mass of the satellite
Now looking at the formula for KE we see that we can represent it as
=>
substituting values
The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by
where k is the spring's constant and x is the displacement with respect to the relaxed position of the spring.
The work done by the spring is the negative of the potential energy difference between the final and initial condition of the spring:
In our problem, initially the spring is uncompressed, so
. Therefore, the work done by the spring when it is compressed until 
is
And this value is actually negative, because the box is responsible for the spring's compression, so the work is done by the box.
