JEE Main 2019 (Online) 9th January Evening Slot | Gravitation Question 177 | Physics

The energy required to take a satellite to a height 'h' above Earth surface (radius of Earth = 6.4 $$ \times $$ 10³ km) is E₁ and kinetic energy required for the satellite to be in a circular orbit at this height is E₂. The value of h for which E₁ and E₂ are equal, is

1.6 $$ \times $$ 10³ km

3.2 $$ \times $$ 10³ km

6.4 $$ \times $$ 10³ km

1.28 $$ \times $$ 10⁴ km

Suppose that the angular velocity of rotation of earth is increased. Then, as a consequence :

Weight of the object, everywhere on the earth, will increase.

Weight of the object, everywhere on the earth, will decrease.

There will be no change in weight anywhere on the earth.

Except at poles, weight of the object on the earth will decrease.

A particle is moving with a uniform speed in a circular orbit of radius R in a central force inversely proportional to the n^th power of R. If the period of rotation of the particle is T, then :

T $$ \propto $$ R^n/2

T $$ \propto $$ R^3/2 for any n

T $$ \propto $$ R^{n/2 +1}

T $$ \propto $$ R^(n+1)/2

A body of mass m is moving in a circular orbit of radius R about a planet of mass M. At some instant, it splits into two equal masses. The first mass moves in a circular orbit of radius $${R \over 2},$$ and the other mass, in a circular orbit of radius $${3R \over 2}$$. The difference between the final and initial total energies is :

$$ - {{GMm} \over {2R}}$$

$$ + {{GMm} \over {6R}}$$

$${{GMm} \over {2R}}$$

$$ - {{GMm} \over {6R}}$$
