A satellite of mass m is in a circular orbit around the earth, whose mass is M. The orbital radius from the center of the earth is r. Use Newton’s second law of motion, together with Eqns (1.25) and (1.31), to calculate the speed v of the satellite in terms of M, r, and the gravitational constant G.
