An Earth satellite of mass m revolves at a height h from the surface of the Earth. If R is the Earth's radius and g is the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the Earth, then the velocity of the satellite is given by |

A satellite orbits at a height h above the Earth's surface. Let R be the Earth's radius. If Ve is the escape velocity and Vo is the orbital velocity of the satellite orbiting at a height h << R, then |

The ratio of the time periods for two satellites of equal mass in circular orbits of radii R and 16 R is |
