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

공식

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

단계별 가이드

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

풀어진 예시

입력
ISS at 400 km altitude around Earth
결과
T ≈ 90 minutes
16 orbits per day

피해야 할 일반적인 실수

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

자주 묻는 질문

Does satellite speed change with altitude?

Yes, inverse √r relationship; lower orbits faster.
