1. Imagine a space elevator with m 20 kg/m extending from the surface (6400 km) to te geosynchronous height of 40,000 km. Take g to be changing with the height. If a stray satellite hits the top of the elevator find the time that the wave will take to reach the surface. The answer should be a few hours or so.
