Given,
The period, T = 10 months
= (10 * 30 * 24 * 60 * 60) sec = 2.6 * 107 sec
Speed of each star, v = 7 * 104 m/s
We know, v = 2r / T
=> r = vT / 2
r = (7 * 104 * 2.6 * 107) / 2
r = 18.2 * 1011 / 2
r = 2.897 * 1011 m
By using Kepler's law,
T2 = r3 / (m1 + m2)
T = 10 months
T = (10 /12) years = 0.833 Years
m1 + m2 = r3 / T2
= (2.897 * 1011)3 / (0.833)2
= 35.04 * 1033 kg
From Doppler shifts, the massive star of mass m2 is twice as m1.
m1 + 2m1 = 35.04 * 1033 kg
3 m1 = 35.04 * 1033 kg
m1 = 11.68 * 1033 kg = 5.872 * 1063 solar mass
So, m2 = 2 * m1
= 2 * 11.68 * 1033
m2 = 23.36 * 1033 kg = 1.174 * 1062 solar mass

The spectral lines of two stars in a particular eclipsing binary system shift back and forth with a period of 6 months. The lines of both stars shift by equal amounts, and the amount of the Doppler shift indicates that each star has an orbital speed of 1.2×105 m/s relative to the other. What are the masses of the two stars? Assume that each of the two stars traces a circular orbit around their center of mass. (Hint: See Mathematical...

Plaskett's binary system consists of two stars that revolve in a circular orbit about a center of mass midway between them. This statement implies that the masses of the two stars are equal (see figure below). Assume the orbital speed of each star is |v vector| = 170 km/s and the orbital period of each is 14.5 days. Find the mass M of each star. (For comparison, the mass of our Sun is 1.99 times 10^30 kg.) 1.02e-9 If you...
