A spaceship orbits around a planet at a height of 20 km from its surface. Assuming that only gravitational field of the planet acts on the spaceship, what will be the number of complete revolutions made by the spaceship in 24 hours around the planet?

[Given ; Mass of planet = 8 × 10²² kg, Radius of planet = 2 × 10⁶ m, Gravitational constant G = 6.67 × 10^–11 Nm² /kg²]

The value of acceleration due to gravity at Earth's surface is 9.8 ms^–2. The altitude above its surface at which the acceleration due to gravity decreases to 4.9 ms^–2, is close to : (Radius of earth = 6.4 × 10⁶ m)

A test particle is moving in a circular orbit in the gravitational field produced by a mass density $$\rho (r) = {K \over {{r^2}}}$$ . Identify the correct relation between the radius R of the particle's orbit and its period T

A solid sphere of mass 'M' and radius 'a' is surrounded by a uniform concentric spherical shell of thickness 2a and mass 2M. The gravitational field at distance '3a' from the centre will be :
