STANDARD Physics Satellite Motion Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-conceptual-Medium-Class 11

Match Column I with Column II. For a satellite in circular orbit,

A

A-r, B-s, C-q, D-p

B

A-q, B-p, C-r, D-s

C

A-p, B-q, C-s, D-r

D

A-s, B-r, C-p, D-q

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

In a circular orbit, kinetic energy is given by GMₑm/2r, potential energy by -GMₑm/r, total energy by -GMₑm/2r, and orbital velocity by √(GMₑ/r). Matching these with the given options leads to the correct answer.
