Answer:

b.9210

Explanation:

circumference of circle = 2πr

So, the circumference of satellite's orbit = 2π(4400) = 8800π

GIVEN: the satellite in a circular orbit rotates around the Earth every 120 minutes.

In other words, the satellite travels 8800π every 120 minutes

So, in 40 minutes, the satellite will travel 1/3 of the 8800π mile orbit (since 40 minutes is 1/3 of 120 minute)

Distance traveled = 8800π/3
