Question

What distance is traveled by a satellite 1200 km from the center of the Earth in 40 π rotations?

Answer 1

Try \(2\pi r\) for one rotation.

Answer 2

so if i try this for one rotation so 2pi r = 2x(22/7)x1200 = 7542.86

Answer 3

I tried to multiply this number by 40 but the answer is not included in the choices. I must have done something wrong

Answer 4

these are the choices
A) 48,000
B) 150,796
C) 225,000
D) 250,435

Answer 5

Wait, is π there on purpose?
What's π?

Answer 6

I got 301600km. Unless the π means some scalar multiplier.
