I keep getting confused. Can someone help me? This is a problem that my professor said I was making too hard for myself. She said part of the problem is irrelevant and to focus on what's required, which I assume is the equation at the end in parenthesis. I got a few different answers and I'm unfortunately lost.
"The period of the Moon is 27.3 days and its orbital radius is 3.82 x 108 m.
Find the period of a satellite 6.90 x 106 m from the Earth's center. (
)"
