JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 7. gravitation
If a satellite orbiting the Earth is 9 times closer to the Earth than the Moon, what is the time period of rotation of the satellite? Given rotational time period of Moon \(=27\) days and gravitational attraction between the satellite and the moon is neglected.
- A 27 days
- B 1 day
- C 81 days
- D 3 days
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 1 day
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{T}^2 \propto \mathrm{R}^3 \\ & \left(\frac{\mathrm{~T}_{\mathrm{m}}}{\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{s}}}\right)^2=\left(\frac{\mathrm{R}}{\mathrm{R} / 9}\right)^3 \\ & \frac{\mathrm{~T}_{\mathrm{m}}}{\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{s}}}=(3)^3 \\ & \Rightarrow…
