The orbital angular momentum of a satellite revolving at a distance $r$ from the centre is $L$. If the distance is increased to $16r$,then the new angular momentum will be

Consider a binary star system consisting of two stars of masses $M_1$ and $M_2$ separated by a distance of $30 \text{ AU}$ with a period of revolution equal to $30 \text{ years}$. If one of the two stars is $5$ times farther from the centre of mass than the other, find the masses of the two stars in terms of solar masses.

An artificial satellite revolves around a planet for which gravitational force $(F)$ varies with distance $r$ from its centre as $F \propto r^2$. If $v_0$ is its orbital speed,then

Spaceman Fred's spaceship (which has negligible mass) is in an elliptical orbit about Planet Bob. The minimum distance between the spaceship and the planet is $R$; the maximum distance between the spaceship and the planet is $2R$. At the point of maximum distance,Spaceman Fred is traveling at speed $v_0$. He then fires his thrusters so that he enters a circular orbit of radius $2R$. What is his new speed?

$A$ satellite moves in a stable circular orbit around the Earth if (where $V_{H}$,$V_{c}$,and $V_{e}$ are the horizontal velocity,critical velocity,and escape velocity respectively):

Weightlessness experienced while orbiting the earth in a spaceship is the result of:
