### Current Attempt in Progress

A satellite is in a circular orbit around an unknown planet. The satellite has a speed of \(1.35 \times 10^4\) m/s, and the radius of the orbit is \(3.47 \times 10^6\) m. A second satellite also has a circular orbit around this same planet. The orbit of this second satellite has a radius of \(9.31 \times 10^6\) m. What is the orbital speed of the second satellite?

### Explanation of Graphs or Diagrams:

This particular section does not include any graphs or diagrams. The text presents a word problem related to orbital mechanics, specifically dealing with two satellites in circular orbits around an unknown planet. The key variables provided include the speeds and orbital radii of the satellites, and the task is to find the speed of the second satellite given these conditions.
