## Sample Question

Two satellites orbit a planet in circular paths. Satellite A has an orbital radius R, and Satellite B has an orbital radius 4R. Which claim correctly compares the orbital period T_B of Satellite B to the period T_A of Satellite A?

- (A) T_B = 8 T_A, because the square of the period is proportional to the cube of the radius
- (B) T_B = 4 T_A, because the period is directly proportional to the orbital radius value
- (C) T_B = 2 T_A, because the period is proportional to the square root of the radius value
- (D) T_B = 64 T_A, because the period is proportional to the cube of the orbital radius

**Answer: (A)** Applying Kepler's third law (T² ∝ r³) requires cubing the radius factor (4³ = 64) and taking the square root to find the period factor (√64 = 8).
