One of Saturn's moon is named as Mimas. The orbital radius of Mimas is 1.87 × 108 m. The time taken to complete one revolution by Mimas around Saturn is approximately 23 hours. The speed of Mimas with which it revolves around Saturn is
14,183 m/s
Given, Orbital radius of Mimas R = 1.87 × 108 m and time taken to complete 1 revolution T = 23 hours
Speed = Circumference of circular pathTime period
= 2πRT
= 2×3.14×1.87×10823×3600
= 14183 ms−1
