By Kepler's 3'd law, T2R3 =constant

 T12R13 = T22R23 or 1(104)3 = 64R23 or R2 = 4×104 km

Distance travelled in one revolution, S1 = 2πR1 = 2π×104   and S2 = 2πR2 = 2π×4×104

v1 = S1t1 = 2π×1041 = 2π×104 kmph

and    v2 = S2t2 = 2π×4×1048= π×104kmph

Relative  velocity

     v1 - v2 = 2π×104-π×104 = π×104 kmph
