The time period of an earth satellite in circular orbit is independent of
The time period of an earth satellite in circular orbit is independent of
the mass of the satellite
radius of its orbit
both the mass and radius of the orbit
neither the mass of the satellite nor the radius of its orbit.
Solution
The time period of satellite is given by
$
T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{(\mathrm{R}+\mathrm{h})^3}{\mathrm{GM}}}
$
where, $\mathrm{R}+\mathrm{h}=$ radius of orbit satellite, $\mathrm{M}=$ mass of earth
