Two Satellites Are Placed in Geosynchronous Orbits,orbits with a Period

Question 1

Multiple Choice

Two satellites are placed in geosynchronous orbits,orbits with a period of 24 hours,where each satellite hovers over a spot on the Earth's equator.Satellite B has three times the mass of satellite A.What is the relationship between the magnitudes of the gravitational forces of the Earth on the two satellites?
