The time period of revolution of a satellite orbiting very close to a planet of radius $R$ is $T$. What is the period of revolution around another planet,whose radius is $3R$ but having the same density?

$A$ geostationary satellite orbits around the earth in a circular orbit of radius $36000\, km$. Then,the time period of a satellite orbiting a few hundred kilometres above the earth's surface $(R_{\text{Earth}} = 6400\, km)$ will approximately be ....... $hours$.

$A$ satellite is revolving around a planet in a circular orbit close to its surface. Let $\rho$ be the mean density and $R$ be the radius of the planet; then the period of the satellite is $(G = \text{Universal constant of gravitation})$

The earth (mass $M = 6 \times 10^{24} \ kg$) revolves around the sun with an angular velocity $\omega = 2 \times 10^{-7} \ rad/s$ in a circular orbit of radius $R = 1.5 \times 10^8 \ km$. The force exerted by the sun on the earth in newtons is:
