A satellite ils launched into a circular orbit `1600km` above the surface of the earth. Find the period of revolution if the radius of the earth is `R=6400km` and the acceleration due to gravity is `9.8ms^(-2)`. At what height from the ground should it be launched so that it may appear stationary over a point on the earth's equator?
