Two satellites $P$ and $Q$ are moving in different circular orbits around the Earth (radius $R$). The heights of $P$ and $Q$ from the Earth's surface are $h_p$ and $h_Q$,respectively,where $h_p = R / 3$. The accelerations of $P$ and $Q$ due to Earth's gravity are $g_p$ and $g_Q$,respectively. If $g_p / g_Q = 36 / 25$,what is the value of $h_Q$?
