Give the formula of gravitational potential at distance $r$ $(r > R_E)$ from the centre of the Earth.

$A$ geostationary satellite orbits the Earth at a height of nearly $36,000 \; km$ from the surface of the Earth. What is the potential due to Earth's gravity at the site of this satellite? (Take the potential energy at infinity to be zero). Mass of the Earth $= 6.0 \times 10^{24} \; kg$,radius $= 6400 \; km$.
