3 particles of mass m lie on a equilateral triangle of side=a . What is the minimum initial velocity to be given to each particle such that they move in a circle with their seperation = initial seperation .Also find time period (IIT - 85)
Answer given is v = √GM/A
T = 2Ï€√a3/3GM

This is not very very tough...
just draw the fbd of the particles.
The net acceleration should be in the central direction.
Do a force analysis...
and then see the solution on this image on the next page...
