Two satellites $P$ and $Q$ are moving in different circular orbits around the Earth(radius $R$). The heights of $P$ and $Q$ from the Earth surface are $h_P$ and $h_Q$, respectively, where $h_P=\frac{R}{3}$. The accelerations of $P$ and $Q$ due to Earth’s gravity are $g_P$ and $g_Q$, respectively. If $\frac{g_P}{g_Q}=\frac{36}{25}$, what is the value of $h_Q$?

Apply the relevant identity from the chapter and substitute the values established in the previous step, keeping the original constraint in view.

Use the simplified expression to isolate the unknown, then plug the result back into the question setup to confirm the working is internally consistent.

Cross-check against a boundary or limiting case. Both the dimensional balance and the qualitative behaviour at the extreme should agree with the candidate answer.

Combine the steps above to identify the correct option. The remaining choices each fail at least one of the consistency, dimensional, or boundary checks.
