Two satellites of masses 3 m and m orbit the earth in circular orbits of radii r and 3 r respectively. The ratio of the their speeds isA. `1:1`B. `sqrt3:1`C. `3:1`D. `9:1`

Answer» Correct Answer - b
`V_(1) prop (1)/(sqrt(r_(1)))and V_(2)prop (1)/(sqrt(r_(2)))`
`(v_(1))/(v_(2))=sqrt((r_(2))/(r_(1)))=sqrt((3r)/(r))=sqrt3`
