Question: A geostationary satellite is one whose orbit is fixed with respect to the rotating Earth. Calculate the altitude at which a geostationary satellite must me be placed.

Part A: Where specifically must the satellite be placed (i.e., above what lat/lon)?

I need help to solve the above question and use the unapproximated form of Newton's gravitation to determine your answer.
