When body is raised to a height equal to radius of earth, the P.E. change is

Answer

A spherical planet far out in space has a mass M0 and diameter D0. A particle of mass m falling freely near the surface of this planet will experience an acceleration due to gravity which is equal to

Answer

If the radius of the earth were to shrink by one percent, its mass remaining the same, the acceleration due to gravity on the earth’s surface would

Answer

The period of geostationary artificial satellite is

Answer

The escape velocity from the earth’s surface is 11 km/sec. A certain planet has a radius twice that of the earth but its mean density is the same as that of the earth. The value of the escape velocity from this planet would be

Answer

If g is the acceleration due to gravity of the earth’s surface the gain in the potential energy of an object of mass m raised from the surface of the earth to a height equal to the radius R of the earth is

Answer

An earth’s satellite of mass m revolves in a circular orbit at a height h from the surface g is acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the earth. The velocity of the satellite in the orbit is given by

Answer

The mean radius of the earth is R, its angular speed on its own axis is ω and the acceleration due to gravity at earth’s surface is g. The cube of the radius of the orbit of a geo-stationary satellite will be

Answer

The radii of the earth and the moon are in the ratio 10 : 1 while acceleration due to gravity on the earth’s surface and moon’s surface are in the ratio 6 : 1. The ratio of escape velocities from earth’s surface to that of moon surface is

Answer

The escape velocity from earth is 11.2 km per sec. If a body is to be projected in a direction making an angle 45° to the vertical, then the escape velocity is
