    Finding the period of the satellite's orbital motion

    Homework Statement I want to find the period of the satellite. Homework Equations mg = mv^2/r The Attempt at a Solution I derive the equation mg = mv^2/r v = sqrt(gr) v = ωr and ω = 2π/T T = 2π/ω = 2πr/v Then, T = 2πr/sqrt(gr) But the answer is 2πr/R * sqrt(r/g). I don't know why? Is...
