The radii of circular orbits of two satellites $A$ and $B$ of the earth are $4R$ and $R$ respectively,where $R$ is the radius of the earth. If the speed of satellite $B$ is $6V$,then the speed of satellite $A$ will be:

  • A
    $3V$
  • B
    $4V$
  • C
    $12V$
  • D
    $3V/4$

If the gravitational constant $G$ is decreasing with time,what will remain unchanged for a satellite orbiting around the Earth?

The distance between two stars of masses $3 M_S$ and $6 M_S$ is $9 R$. Here $R$ is the mean distance between the centers of the Earth and the Sun,and $M_S$ is the mass of the Sun. The two stars orbit around their common center of mass in circular orbits with period $n T$,where $T$ is the period of Earth's revolution around the Sun. The value of $n$ is. . . . .

$A$ planet revolves around the Sun in an elliptical orbit. When it is closest to the Sun,its distance from the Sun is $d_1$ and its velocity is $v_1$. When it is farthest from the Sun,its distance from the Sun is $d_2$. What is its velocity at that point?

$A$ planet is moving around the sun in an elliptical orbit at different positions $A, B, C, D$. The maximum kinetic energy of the planet is at position:

If the gravitational force between two objects were proportional to $\frac{1}{R}$ (and not as $\frac{1}{R^2}$) where $R$ is the separation between them,then a particle in a circular orbit under such a force would have its orbital speed $v$ proportional to
