An astronaut of mass m is working on a satellite orbiting the earth at a distance h from the earth’s surface. The radius of the earth is R, while its mass is M. The gravitational pull FG on the astronaut is :
A
Zero since astronaut feels weightless
B
0 < FG < $${{GMm} \over {{R^2}}}$$
C
$${{GMm} \over {{{\left( {R + h} \right)}^2}}}$$ < FG < $${{GMm} \over {{R^2}}}$$
D
FG = $${{GMm} \over {{{\left( {R + h} \right)}^2}}}$$
