A 1360 kg geosynchronous satellite orbits a planet similar to Earth at a radius 1.97 × 105 km from the planet's center. Its angular speed at this radius is the same as the rotational speed of the Earth, and so they appear stationary in the sky. That is, the periodof the satellite is 24 h.
a) What is the force acting on this satellite?
Answer in units of N
b) What is the mass of this planet?
Answer in units of kg
