The satellite rotates around the Earth in a circular orbit with radius R. As a result of the short-term action of the braking device, the speed of the satellite decreased so that it begins to move in an elliptical orbit touching the surface of the Earth (Fig. 51). How long after this will the satellite land? Radius of the Earth R3. Neglect friction in the atmosphere.
