Find the centripetal acceleration of the orbit

Reference no: EM13717138

Question: Suppose the space shuttle is in orbit 411 km from the surface of an unknown planet of radius 6380 km, and the orbital period is 101.0 min.

Part A: Find the centripetal acceleration of the orbit.

I need help to find the centripetal acceleration of the orbit and express your answer in terms of g, the gravitational acceleration at the Earth's surface.
