To complete this exercise, you need to know that the circumference of a circle is proportional to its radius, and that the constar of proportionality is 2л. You do not need to know either the radius of the Moon's orbit or the radius of Earth. For purposes of this exercise, we assume that the Moon's orbit around Earth is circular. In one trip around Earth, the Moon travels approximately 2.4 million kilometers. Another satellite orbits Earth (in a circular orbit) at a distance from Earth that is 1/2 that of the Moon. How far does this satellite travel in one trip around Earth? (Use decimal notation. Give your answer to one decimal place.) distance: 7.5 million kilometers
