Physics:
The figure(Figure 1) shows two planets of mass \( m \) Part A orbiting a star of mass \( M \). The planets are in the same orbit, with radius \( r \), but are always at opposite ends of a diameter. Find an exact expression for the orbital period \( T \). Hint: Each planet feels two forces. Express your answer in terms of \( M, m, r \), and \( G \).
