Newton's Law of Gravitation states that two bodies with masses m1 and m2 attract each other with a force F, where r is the distance between the bodies and G is the gravitational constant. Use Newton's Law of Gravitation to compute the work W required to launch a 1600 kg satellite vertically to an orbit 1300 km high. You may assume that the earth's mass is 5.98✕1024 kg and is concentrated at its center. Take the radius of the earth to be 6.37✕106 m and G = 6.67✕10-11 Nm2/kg2. (Round your answer to three significant digits.)
