The speed of a satellite orbiting Earth is given by v = (GM/d). Escape speed from Earth is given by v = (2GM/d), where in both cases G is the gravitational constant, M is Earth's mass, and d is distance from Earth's center.
If a satellite's kinetic energy were doubled it could
A) orbit at twice its distance from Earth.
B) orbit at four times the distance from Earth.
C) escape Earth.
