33 A satellite is moving in a circular orbit round the earth

33 A satellite is moving in a circular orbit round the earth with a diameter of 2R At a certain point a rocket fixed to the satellite is fired such that it increases the velocity of the satellite tangentially The resulting orbit of the satellite would be a same as before b circular orbit with diameter greater than R c elliptical orbit with minimum distance from the centre of earth equal to R d elliptical orbit with maximum distance from the centre of earth equal to R
