A geostationary satellite is taken to a new orbit such that its distance from centre of the earth is doubled. Then find the time period of this satellite in the new orbit.
- A
- B
- C
- D
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The orbital time period for a satellite is T=2πr3GME here, r is the orbital radius, therefore, T∝r32 As the satellite is geostationary, therefore, the time period of the satellite is 24 hrs or T1=24 hrs Now, if T2 is the time period of…
