The time period of a satellite of Earth is $24 \text{ hours}$. If the separation between the Earth and the satellite is decreased to one-fourth of the previous value, then its new time period will become: (in $\text{ hours}$)

$A$ satellite $S_1$ of mass $m$ is moving in an orbit of radius $r$. Another satellite $S_2$ of mass $2m$ is moving in an orbit of radius $2r$. The ratio of the time period of satellite $S_2$ to that of $S_1$ is
