Like a badminton shuttlecock, the faster a
flies, the longer it will maintain its altitude. To compensate for the
’s gravitational pull, it must reach a speed that depends on its altitude. i.e: to remain stationary 300km above the Earth’s surface, it must be moving at

D, a satellite has to counter gravity. A, B and C will pull the satellite right back to earth.

28,000 KM/H - Earths gravitational pull is so strong that anything less would pull the satellite back to down. This speed allows it to balance the gravitational pull without leaving orbit all together and heading off into space
