2. A meteorite is orbiting around the Earth. The shortest distance and longest distance of the
orbit from the center of the Earth are 1.50 x 10% m, 4.77 x 10% m, respectively. If the
meteorite has a speed of 1.78 x 10° m/s when it is at the location of the shortest distance
from the Earth, the speed of the meteorite at the location of the longest distance from the
Earth is
(a) 1.66 x 10° m/s
(b) 1.03 x 105 m/s
(c) 5.60 x 10° m/s
(d) 7.43 x 107 m/s
