Given below are two statements : Statement I: A satellite is moving around earth in the orbit very close to the earth surface. The time period of revolution of satellite depends upon the density of earth. Statement II: The time period of revolution of the satellite is T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{R_e}{g}} (for satellite very close to the earth surface), where R_{ e } radius of earth and g acceleration due to gravity. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below : [22 Jan 2026 Shift 2]
