Venus Pulsing

A closer look at \(f\propto \cfrac{1}{m}\) leads to the post "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Stars" dated 25 Jul 2014,

\(f=\cfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\cfrac{g_{p}}{r_{p}}}\)

and Venus adjusted surface gravity, \(g_v=0.02586\,\,kms^{-2}\) and its radius \(r_v=6052\,\,km\) which give,

\(f=\cfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\cfrac{0.02586}{6052}}=0.0003290\,\,s^{-1}\)

which is about one pulse in \(3039.6\,s\) or one pulse in \(50.66\,mins\).  Do not confusion this pulse with atmospheric disturbance.
