1.3 Rotation Curves
demonstration
In this demonstration, you can observe the relationship $v\propto\frac{1}{\sqrt{r}}$ for planets with circular orbits. The graph on the right shows the speeds and orbital radii of all five planets. Use the slider to set the radius of the red planet’s orbit and observe how its speed changes.
