Question
A satellite of mass $m$ revolves around the earth of radius $R$ at a height $x$ from its surface. If $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth, the orbital speed of the satellite is
${{g{R^2}} \over {R + x}}$
${{gR} \over {R - x}}$
${gx}$
${\left( {{{g{R^2}} \over {R + x}}} \right)^{1/2}}$
