The time period of a satellite,revolving above earth's surface at a height equal to $R$ will be (Given $g = \pi^2 \ m/s^2$,$R =$ radius of earth).

$A$ satellite of mass $\frac{M}{2}$ is revolving around the Earth in a circular orbit at a height of $\frac{R}{3}$ from the Earth's surface. The angular momentum of the satellite is $M \sqrt{\frac{GMR}{x}}$. The value of $x$ is . . . . . . ,where $M$ and $R$ are the mass and radius of the Earth,respectively. ($G$ is the gravitational constant)

If due to air drag,the orbital radius of a satellite decreases from $R$ to $R - \Delta R$,where $\Delta R << R$,the expression for the change in orbital velocity $\Delta v$ is (mass of Earth is $M$):
