A satellite is in a circular parking orbit 6.98 × 106 m from the center of Earth. To initiate a Hohmann transfer, a rocket gives it an accelerating thrust so that its speed is increased to 8300 m/s. How far from the center of Earth will the satellite be when it reaches its apogee? The mass of Earth is 5.97 × 1024 kg and G = 6.67 x 10-11 N•m2/kg2.
A) 3.12 × 107 m
B) 2.48 × 107 m
C) 1.06 × 107 m
D) 6.73 × 107 m
E) 4.75 × 107 m
