Two planets A and B of equal mass are having their period of revolutions TA and TB such that TA = 2TB. These planets are revolving in the circular orbits or radii rA and rB respectively. Which out of the following would be the correct relationship of their orbits?

According to kepler’s third law of time period –
The time period of satellite in a circular orbit of radius R is T. The period of another satellite in a circular orbit of radius 9R is:
<!-- [if !supportLineBreakNewLine]-->
<!--[endif]-->
The time period of satellite in a circular orbit of radius R is T. The period of another satellite in a circular orbit of radius 9R is:
<!-- [if !supportLineBreakNewLine]-->
<!--[endif]-->
T² ∝ R³
⇒ (T? /T? )² = (R? /R? )³ ⇒ T? = 9³/² T = 27T
A satellite is launched into a circular orbit of radius R around earth, while a second satellite is launched into a circular orbit of radius 1.02R. The percentage difference in the time periods of the two satellites is:
A satellite is launched into a circular orbit of radius R around earth, while a second satellite is launched into a circular orbit of radius 1.02R. The percentage difference in the time periods of the two satellites is:
Time period of Satellite = T =
The percentage difference in the time periods of the two satellites =
= (0.03) × 100 = 3%
