Two stars M_1 and M_2 of equal mass make up a binary star
system. They move in a circular orbit that has its center at the
midpoint of the line that separates them. If M_1=M_2=5.45 sm (solar
mass), and the orbital period of each star is 2.70 days, find their
orbital speed. (The mass of the sun is 1.99x10^30kg).
