    The formula to get the rational or orbital speed given the mass and the height of the object is:

    ω² = 3g/h

    where ω is the orbital speed, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the object

    Substituting values:

    ω² = 3 (9.81) / 6.37x10^6

    ω = 2.15x10^-3/s
