5 Sputnik the first artificial satellite to orbit the Earth had a mass of 83 6 kg and travelled at 7574 m s The radius of the earth is 6371 km and its mass is 5 972 x 1024 kg NOTE You may find different numbers online since there was some uncertainty in the exact orbit These numbers were chosen to keep this question consistent Also this question requires a subtraction which can cause difficulty with the numerical tolerance Keep about 5 figures as you go through the calculation I have increased the tolerance to 10 5a 1 point possible graded
