Find the orbital speed of the satellite

Reference no: EM13664854

A satellite is in orbit about Earth. Its orbital radius is 8.73 × 107 meter. The mass of the satellite is 1103 kilogram and the mass of Earth is 5.979 × 1024 kg. Compute the orbital speed of the satellite in mi/s. 1 mi/s = 1609 m/s.
