A 4,000 kg satellite is traveling in a circular orbit 200 km above the surface of the Earth. A 30.0 gram marble is dropped inside the satellite. What is the force of gravity on the marble as viewed by the observers on the Earth? (ME = 5.98 × 1024 kg, RE = 6.37 × 106 m, G = 6.67 × 10−11 N·m2/kg2)

A 5,000 kg satellite is orbiting the Earth in a circular path. The height of the satellite above the surface of the Earth is 800 km. The time it takes for the satellite to travel around the Earth is (ME = 5.98 × 1024 kg, RE = 6.37 × 106 m, G = 6.67 × 10−11 N·m2/kg2)
