Estimate the overall ratio of clock time on a satellite


Understanding the concept of time dilation.

1. Solve how fast a GPS satellite is moving relative to someone on the ground and from that how much slower time runs where it is in orbit relative to someone on ground.

2. Estimate the overall ratio of clock time on a satellite to clock time on the earth. In particular, if you're on earth and 1 second passes on an earth clock, how much time passes on a satellite clock?
