    Near earths surface, time period of a stellite is 4 h. Find its time period at height 4R from the centre of earth :

    A)  \[32\,h\]            

    B)  \[\left( \frac{1}{8\sqrt[3]{2}} \right)h\]

    C)  \[8\sqrt[3]{2}\]                               

    D)         \[16\,h\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    We know,\[{{T}^{2}}\propto {{R}^{3}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{\left( \frac{{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{1}}} \right)}^{2}}={{\left( \frac{{{R}_{2}}}{{{R}_{1}}} \right)}^{3}}\Rightarrow \frac{{{T}_{2}}}{4}={{\left( \frac{4R}{R} \right)}^{3/2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{T}_{2}}=4\times 8=32h\].
