Consider two satellites $S_{1}$ and $S_{2}$ with periods of revolution $1\, hr$ and $8\, hr$ respectively,revolving around a planet in circular orbits. The ratio of the angular velocity of satellite $S_{1}$ to the angular velocity of satellite $S_{2}$ is:

  • A
    $2: 1$
  • B
    $1: 4$
  • C
    $8: 1$
  • D
    $1: 8$
