PLEASE NEED HELP FOR HOMEWORK

An artificial satellite of mass m moves in a circular orbit around the Earth with a radius R, and a period T. Let Re be the radius of the Earth, G the gravitational constant and M the mass of the earth. Hint: Relate the particle's speed and radius to each other using both Newton's law for a particle moving in a circle in a gravitational field, and the kinematic expression of the period T for a particle moving in a circle at constant speed. What is the magnitude of the angular momentum of the satellite with respect to the Earth's center? L=G1/2M3/4m3/4R1/2E/(2 phi)1/2

Explanation / Answer

L, the magnitude of the angular momentum of the satellite with respect to the center of the planet. Express in terms of m, G, M and R.
? L = I? = (mR
