A setellite is in a circular orbit 5100km above the surface of the earth. it moves on a circular path under the influence of nothing but the earth's gravity. Find the speed in km/s of the satellite. The radius of the Earth is 6.37*10^6 m, and the acceleration of gravity at the satellite's altitude is 3.03297 m/s2. Also find the time it takes to complete one orbit around the Earth in s.
