An artificial satellite is revolving around a planet of mass M and radius R, in a circular orbit of radius r. From Kepler’s Third law about the period of a satellite around a common central body, square of the period of revolution T is proportional to the cube of the radius of the orbit r. Show using dimensional analysis, that $\text{T}=\frac{\text{k}}{\text{R}}\sqrt{\frac{\text{r}^3}{\text{g}}},$ where k is a dimensionless constant and g is acceleration due to gravity.

A man walking briskly in rain with speed v must slant his umbrella forward making an angle $\theta$ with the vertical. A student derives the following relation between $\theta$ and v: $\tan \theta = \text{v}$ and checks that the relation has a correct limit: as $\text{v}\rightarrow 0,\ \theta \rightarrow0,$ as expected. (We are assuming there is no strong wind and that the rain falls vertically for a stationary man). Do you think this relation can be correct? If not, guess the correct relation.
