Kako izračunati Satellite Period
Što je Satellite Period?
Satellite orbital period (Kepler third law) depends on orbital radius and central body mass: T² ∝ a³.
Formula
Apply T = 2π√(a³/GM)
- T
- 2π√(a³/GM) — 2π√(a³/GM)
- GM
- GM value — Variable used in the calculation

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- ✕Confusing orbital radius with altitude
- ✕Forgetting Earth radius in altitude conversion
Frequently Asked Questions
Does satellite speed change with altitude?
Yes, inverse √r relationship; lower orbits faster.
