Ah, that makes a lot more sense to me. Thanks a lot :)

So does the Earth's core spin at the same rate as the earth, but in the other direction? Because that would cancel them out wouldn't it?

We're doing orbits and such in physics at the moment, and out teacher said "if a geostationary satellite gets further away, it has to go faster". I get this, because with a bigger orbit it would have to move faster to stay above the same point on earth, more distance to travel in the same time...

Hmm, well if that's the EXACT wording of the question, I have no idea. Sorry.

If its the same distance, then you just need an average of 42 and 52. 42+52=94 94/2= 47km/h
