Two satellites revolve around the Earth. Satellite A has mass mmm and has an orbit of radius rrr. Satellite B has mass 6m6m and an orbit of unknown radius rbrbr b. The forces of gravitational attraction between each satellite and the Earth is the same. Find rbrbr b.

r(b) = 2.45r

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Satellite A

Mass = m

Orbit radius = r

Satellite B

Mass = 6m

Orbit radius = r(b)

Gravitational force between Earth and Satellite A, F(A) is:

F(A) = (G*M*m)/r²

F(A) = GMm/r²

Gravitational force between Earth and Satellite B, F(B) is:

F(B) = (G*M*6m)/r(b)²

F(B) = 6GMm/r(b)²

Since F(A) = F(B),

GMm/r² = 6GMm/r(b)²

=> r(b)² = 6r²

r(b) = 2.45r

measure their densities same density, same sub

the old price per ounce is c/4.

the new price per ounce is c/3.6.

the ratio of the old price to the new one is

(c/4)/(c/3.6) = (c/c)×(3.6/4) = 0.9 . . = 9/10 . . "nine tenths" in either form
