A satellite is revolving round the earth in circular orbitA. if mass of earth is made four times, keeping other factors constant, orbital speed of satellite will become two timesB. corresponding to change in part(a), times period of satellite will become halfC. when value of `G` is made two times orbital speed increases and time period decreasesD. `G` has no effect on orbital speed and time period

Answer» Correct Answer - A::B::C
`nu = sqrt((Gm)/(r ))`
or `nu prop sqrt(GM)`
`T = (2 pi)/(sqrt(GM))r^(3//2)`
or `T prop (1)/(sqrt(GM))`
