Two satellites of masses m and 3m revolve around the earth in circular orbits of radii r & 3r respectively. The ratio of orbital speeds of the satellites respectively is
Assuming the earth to be a sphere of uniform mass density, the weight of a body at a depth $$d=\frac{R}{2}$$ from the surface of earth, if its weight on the surface of earth is 200 N, will be:
(Given R = radius of earth)
The acceleration due to gravity at height $$h$$ above the earth if $$h << \mathrm{R}$$ (Radius of earth) is given by
The orbital angular momentum of a satellite is L, when it is revolving in a circular orbit at height h from earth surface. If the distance of satellite from the earth centre is increased by eight times to its initial value, then the new angular momentum will be -
