$A$ double star is a system of two stars rotating about their centre of mass only under their mutual gravitational attraction. Let the stars have masses $m$ and $2m$ and their separation be $l$. Their time period of rotation about their centre of mass will be proportional to:

$A$ satellite of mass $M$ is in a circular orbit of radius $R$ about the center of the Earth. $A$ meteorite of the same mass $M$,falling towards the Earth,collides with the satellite completely inelastically. The speeds of the satellite and the meteorite are the same,just before the collision. The subsequent motion of the combined body will be:
