Explanation:      

In the given problem, The satellites fire rockets that provide the force needed to maintain a circular orbit around the space station. The centripetal force is acting to keep up the continuous circular motion.

The expression for the centripetal force is as follows;

Here, m is the mass of the object, v is the velocity and r is the radius.

In the given problem, the orbital period is constant.

Thus,

In the given problem,  each satellite has mass m and radius of orbit L.

Calculate the net force acting on each satellite from their rockets for the part A.

Put m= 200 kg, R=6378 km and L=5000 m.

Calculate the net force acting on each satellite from their rockets for the part B.

Put m= 400 kg, R=6378 km and L=2500 m.

Calculate the net force acting on each satellite from their rockets for the part C.

Put m= 100 kg, R=6378 km and L=2500 m.

Calculate the net force acting on each satellite from their rockets for the part D.

Put m= 100 kg, R=6378 km and L=10000 m.

Calculate the net force acting on each satellite from their rockets for the part E.

Put m= 800 kg, R=6378 km and L=5000 m.

Calculate the net force acting on each satellite from their rockets for the part F.

Put m= 300 kg, R=6378 km and L=7500 m.

Therefore, the rank of the items is E,B,F,A,D,C.

explanation:

a fuel engine ( known as a gasoline engine in american english )is an internal combustion engine with spark ignition, designed to run on petrol (gasoline) and similar volatile fuels.
