Any object that is launched as a projectile will lose speed and, as a result, altitude, as it travels through the air. The rate at which the object loses speed and altitude depends on the amount of force that way applied to it when it was launched. It is also dependent on the size and shape of the item. This is why something like, say, a football is much faster to fall to the ground than a bullet.
satellite originally moves in a circular orbit of radius R around the Earth. Suppose it is moved into a circular orbit of radius 4R.

If the substance doesn't change chemically, it is a physical reaction.
The circumference of a circle is (2π · the circle's radius).
The length of a semi-circle is (1π · the circle's radius) =
(π · 14.8) = 46.5 (rounded)
(The unit is the same as whatever the unit of the 14.8 is.)
