$L \propto \sqrt{r}$

Vedclass · Answer

(c)

Angular momentum of a satellite revolving around earth in a circular orbit, $L=m v r$

$m \rightarrow$ mass of satellite

$v \rightarrow$ speed of satellite

$r \rightarrow$ radius of orbit

$\Rightarrow L=m v r$

Also, $v=\sqrt{\frac{G M}{r}}$

$\Rightarrow L=m \sqrt{\frac{G M}{r}} r$

Thus, $L \propto \sqrt{r}$

If $L$ is the angular momentum of a satellite revolving around earth is a circular orbit of radius $r$ with speed $v$, then .........
