無料Circular orbit – speed of satellite doesn’t depend on its massアニメーション

Circular orbit – speed of satellite doesn’t depend on its mass There are two satellites, A and B, orbiting at the exact same distance above the Earth. The engineers at the ground station monitoring the two satellites check the speed that satellite A is travelling at and note it down. They then check satellite B, which they know has a mass that is double the mass of satellite A.
