Cara Menghitung Satellite Period

learn.whatIsHeading

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

Rumus

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

Panduan Langkah demi Langkah

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

Contoh Terpecahkan

Masukan
ISS at 400 km altitude around Earth
Hasil
T ≈ 90 minutes
16 orbits per day

Kesalahan Umum yang Harus Dihindari

  • Confusing orbital radius with altitude
  • Forgetting Earth radius in altitude conversion

Pertanyaan yang sering diajukan

Does satellite speed change with altitude?

Yes, inverse √r relationship; lower orbits faster.
