What point along the line from the center of the Earth to the center of the Moon orbits the barycenter of the Solar System in a (nearly) circular orbit (e.g. the center of the Earth, the barycenter of the Earth-Moon system, the midpoint, the center of the Moon)?
There are numerous moons around the planet Saturn. During the formation of our solar system, these astronomical bodies would have interacted and possibly collided with each other. Imagine that one moon of mass m1 and circular orbital radius r1 originally had a velocity v1 until it collided with another moon of mass m2. This collision caused moon m1 to move in a new circular orbit with velocity 1.25v1. What is the new radius of m1 moon’s orbit?
