We know that in one day, or 86400 seconds, the satellite travels around the earth once. v = = = = 3076 m/s. thus. a = = = .224 m/s2. Find the acceleration of gravity at an altitude above the earth's surface equal to 2 times the radius of the earth. (This is then 3 earth radii from the center of the earth.) ................
