If $g \propto \frac{1}{{{R^3}}}$ (instead of $\frac{1}{{{R^2}}}),$ then the relation between time period of a satellite near earth's surface and radius $R$ will be

A

${T^2} \propto {R^3}$

B

$T \propto {R^2}$

C

${T^2} \propto R$

D

$T \propto R$

If $g \propto \frac{1}{{{R^3}}}$ (instead of $\frac{1}{{{R^2}}}),$ then the relation between time period of a satellite near earth's surface and radius $R$ will be

Gravitational force provides the required centripetal force

$m{\omega ^2}R = \frac{{GMm}}{{{R^3}}}$

$ \Rightarrow $$\frac{{4{\pi ^2}}}{{{T^2}}} = \frac{{GM}}{{{R^4}}}$

$ \Rightarrow $$T \propto {R^2}$
