Which graph best represents the variation of radius r of a circular orbit of a satellite against its time priod T ?

a.Find the radius of the circular orbit of a satellite moving with ab angular speed equal to the angular speed of earth's rotation. b. If the satellite is directlly above the north pole at some instant find the time it takes to come over the equatorial plaen. Mass of the earth =6xx10^24kg

STATEMENT-1 : Radius of circular orbit of a satellite is made two times, then its areal velocity will also becomes two times. because STATEMENT -2 : Areal velocity is given as (dA)/( dt)= ( L)/( 2m)= ( mvr)/( 2m) .

The radii of circular orbits of two satellite A and B of the earth are 4R and R , respectively. If the speed of satellite A is 3v , then the speed of satellite B will be

The circular orbit of two satellites have radii r_(1) and r_(2) respectively (r_(1)ltr_(2)) . If angular velosities of satellites are same, then their centripetal accelerations are related as

In last question assume that circular orbit of the satellite has radius r-(0). Find (DeltaV)/(V_(9)) for which the maximum distance of the satellite from the centre of the earth become 2r_(0) after the rocket is fired.

Statement I: Two satellites are following one another in the same circular orbit. If one satellite tries to catch another (leading one) satellite, then it can be done by increasing its speed without changing the orbit. Statement II: The energy of earth-satellite system in circular orbit is given by E = (-Gms)//(2a) , where r is the radius of the circular orbit.

Suppose the force of gravitation is inversely proportional to the cube of the radius of circular orbit in which satellite is revolving then its time period is proportional to

Calculate the radius of the circular orbit of a stationary Earth's satellite, which remains motionless with respect to its surface. What are its velocity and acceleration in the inertial reference frame fixed at a given moment to the centre of the Earth?
