A seconds pendulum is placed in a space laboratory orbiting round the earth at a height '$$3 \mathrm{R}$$' from the earth's surface. The time period of the pendulum will be ( $$R=$$ radius of earth)

A body weighs $$500 \mathrm{~N}$$ on the surface of the earth. At what distance below the surface of the earth it weighs $$250 \mathrm{~N}$$ ? (Radius of earth, $$\mathrm{R}=6400 \mathrm{~km}$$ )

The masses and radii of the moon and the earth are $$\mathrm{M_1, R_1}$$ and $$\mathrm{M_2, R_2}$$ respectively. Their centres are at a distance $$\mathrm{d}$$ apart. What should be the minimum speed with which a body of mass '$$m$$' should be projected from a point midway between their centres, so as to escape to infinity?

The average density of the earth is [g is acceleration due to gravity]
