A sky lab of mass `2 xx 10^(3)kg` is first lauched from the surface of earth in a circular orbit of radius `2R` and them it is shifted from this circular orbit to another circular orbit of radius `3R`. Calculate the energy required
(a) to place the lab in the first orbit,
(b) to shift the lab from first orbit to the second orbit. `(R = 6400 km`, `g = 10 m//s^(2))`
