A satellite of mass \( m \) is orbiting in a circular orbit of radius \( r \) around a planet of mass \( M \). What is the ratio of its kinetic energy \( K \), potential energy \( U \), and total mechanical energy \( E \)?

  1. A
    \( -1 : 2 : 1 \)
  2. B
    \( 1 : 2 : -1 \)
  3. C
    \( 2 : -1 : 1 \)
  4. D
    \( 1 : -2 : -1 \)
View Answer & Solution

Correct answer · Option D

\( 1 : -2 : -1 \)

Explanation

\( K = \frac{GMm}{2r} \), \( U = -\frac{GMm}{r} \), \( E = -\frac{GMm}{2r} \). Hence \( K : U : E = 1 : -2 : -1 \).
