Geostationary satellites are satellites which are orbiting the Earth above the equator and make one complete orbit every 24 hours. Because their orbital period is synchronized with the Earth's rotational period, a geostationary satellite can always be found in the same position in the sky relative to an observer on Earth. (GIVEN: MEarth = 5.98 x 1024 kg) a. Determine the orbital radius of a geostationary satellite.b. Determine the orbital speed of a geostationary satellite.c. Determine the acceleration of a geostationary satellite.
