A satellite moves in a circular orbit around Earth at a speed of 4367 m/s.
(a) Determine the satellite's altitude above the surface of Earth.
Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. Double check your calculations. m
(b) Determine the period of the satellite's orbit.
please help me! ill give best answer thank you!!

v = 4367 m/s
r = ? this is what the question's asking.
a = ?
We need more data to complete this question. What is the required centripetal acceleration to keep a satellite in orbit?
The period is the time for one revolution. This can be found using the equation v = d/t, where d is the length of the orbit (2 pi r)
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
