By applying Newton's second law of motion;
ma = mg - T
Where,
m = mass; a = downward accelerations (+ve value) or upward acceleration (-ve value); g = gravitational acceleration; T = tension.
For the current case, the velocity is constant therefore,
a = 0
Then,
0 = mg - T
T = mg = 115*9.81 = 1128.15 N
Tension in the cable is 1128.15 N.
Because it on by it's self floating around not forming part of something
Orbit circumference

<span>time for orbit trip = 2.9*10^7 s </span>
<span>speed = 2 pi *1.9 / 2.9 miles/second </span>
<span>= 4.12 miles/second </span>
<span>You did not say what units </span>

Centripetal acceleration is the motion inwards towards the center of a circle. It is given by the square of velocity, divided by the radius of the circular path.
ac = v²/r, where ac is the centripetal acceleration in m/s²
Therefore,
Centripetal acceleration = 3²/20m
= 9/20m
= 0.45 m/s²
Thus, the centripetal acceleration is 0.45 m/s²
