Explanation:
Expression for times period of a satellite can be given as follows
Time period T = 1.8 x 60 x 60
= 6480
T² = where T is time period , r is radius of orbit , G is gravitational constant and M is mass of the satellite.
6480² = 4 x 3.14² x 7.5³ x 10¹⁸ / GM
GM = 4 x 3.14² x 7.5³ x 10¹⁸ / 6480²
= 3.96 X 10¹⁴
Expression for acceleration due to gravity
g = GM / R² where R is radius of satellite
20 = 3.96 X 10¹⁴ / R²
R² = 3.96 X 10¹⁴ / 20
= 1.98 x 10¹³ m
R= 4.45 x 10⁶ m
