A 500-kg satellite is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 500 km above the Earth’s surface. Because of air friction, the satellite eventually falls to the Earth’s surface, where it hits the ground with a speed of 2.00 km/s. How much energy was transformed into internal energy by means of air friction?
