Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
As we know
Gravitational Constant (G) [tex]= 6.67*10^{11}[/tex]
Mass of Earth (M) [tex]= 5.98*10^{24}[/tex]
Weight of satellite (m) [tex]= 10,000[/tex] Kg
Radius of Earth (R) = [tex]6.378*10^6[/tex]
Distance of satellite from Earth = [tex]\frac{GMm}{R} - U[/tex]
Substituting the given values, we get
[tex]D=\frac{(-((6.67*10^{11})(5.98*10^{24})(10000))}{(6.378*10^6)} - (-5.58*10^{11})\\\\0.625*10^{3}[/tex]Km
or 635 m
The correct answer is option D
