A satellite in a 100-mile-high circular orbit around Earth has a velocity of approximately 17,500 miles per hour. If this velocity is multiplied by √2 the satellite will have the minimum velocity necessary to escape Earth's gravity and will follow a parabolic path with the center of Earth as the focus. Required:
Find the distance between the surface of the Earth and the satellite when θ = 50°.

a. Distance between surface of Earth and satellite:4496 miles
b. Distance between surface of Earth and satellite:4322 miles
c. Distance between surface of Earth and satellite:1286 miles
d. Distance between surface of Earth and satellite:643 miles
e. Distance between surface of Earth and satellite:1492 miles
