Ako vypočítať Satellite Period

Čo je Satellite Period?

Satellite orbital period (Kepler third law) depends on orbital radius and central body mass: T² ∝ a³.

Vzorec

Apply T = 2π√(a³/GM)
T
2π√(a³/GM) — 2π√(a³/GM)
GM
GM value — Variable used in the calculation

Sprievodca krok za krokom

  1. 1Input orbital radius or planet name with altitude
  2. 2Apply T = 2π√(a³/GM)
  3. 3Results show period in hours/days

Worked Examples

Vstup
ISS at 400 km altitude around Earth
Výsledok
T ≈ 90 minutes
16 orbits per day

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.
