Physics · Gravitation
Consider a binary star system of star A and star B with masses mA and mB revolving in circular orbits of radii rA and rB respectively around their common center of mass. If TA and TB are the time periods of star A and star B respectively, then:
- 1TA > TB (if rA > rB)
- 2TA > TB (if mA > mB)
- 3TA = TB✓
- 4TATB = (rArB)3/2
Correct answer
TA = TB
