Assume there are two identical simple pendulum clocks. Clock-$1$ is placed on the Earth and Clock-$2$ is placed on a space station located at a height $h$ above the Earth's surface. Clock-$1$ and Clock-$2$ operate with time periods of $4\,s$ and $6\,s$ respectively. Then the value of $h$ is $....\,km$ (consider the radius of the Earth $R_E = 6400\,km$ and $g$ on Earth $10\,m/s^2$).
