b) For the spaseship to stay in equilibrium on the circular orbit, the total force acting on the spaceshipshould provide the acceleration a v²/R, directed inwards (remember that a circular motion is an accel-erated motion, because the velocity keeps changing direction, even if its magnitude is constant). UsingNewton's second law of motion for the spaceship, Ftot = msa, where Ftot is the total force acting on thespaceship, find the required velocity.
