Two satellites orbiting around the earth have their critical speeds in the ratio 4 : 5. What is the ratio of their orbital radii ?A. `(5)/(4)`B. `(4)/(5)`C. `(25)/(16)`D. `(12)/(5)`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`(V_(c1))/(V_(c2))=sqrt((R_(2))/(R_(1)))`
`therefore (R_(1))/(R_(2))=((V_(c2))/(V_(c1)))^(2)=((5)/(4))^(2)=(25)/(16)`
