 An artificial satellite is moving in a circular orbit of radius 42250 km

Speed of 3.079 km/s  if it takes 24 hours to revolve around the earth
Here, the radius of the orbit, r =42250 km
=42250×1000 m
The time period, = 24 h
=24×60×60
The speed of the satellite, v=distancetime
v=2πrT

=2×3.14×42250×100024×60×60

=3070.9 ms-1

=3.0709 km/s
