A second pendulum is mounted in a rocket. Its period of oscillation decreases when the rocket
Comes down with uniform acceleration
Moves round the earth in a geostationary orbit
Moves up with a uniform velocity
Moves up with uniform acceleration
For a satellite escape velocity is 11 km/s. If the satellite is launched at an angle of 60o with the vertical, then escape velocity will be
11 Km/s
11√3 Km/s
11/√3 Km/s
33 Km/s
The density of newly discovered planet is twice that of earth.The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the planet is equal to that at the surface of the earth. If the radius of the earth is R, the radius of the planet would be
2 R
4 R
R/4
R/2
A satellite A of mass m is at a distance r from the surface of the earth. Another satellite B of mass 2m is at a distance of 2r from the earth's surface. Their time periods are in the ratio of
1 : 2
1 : 16
1 : 32
1 : 2√2
If the gravitational force between two object were proportional to 1/R (and not as 1/R2), where R is separation between them, then a particle in circular orbit under such a force would have its orbital speed v proportional to
1/R2
R0
R
1/R
The escape velocity from earth is 11.2 km/s. If a body is to be projected in a direction making an angle 45o to the vertical, then the escape velocity is
11.2 × 2 km/s
11.2 km/s
11.2/√2 km/s
11.2√2 km/s
The largest and the shortest distance of the earth from the sun are r1 and r2. Its distance from the sun when it is perpendicular to the major axis of the orbit drawn from the sun is
A body of mass m is placed on earth's surface. It is then taken from earth's surface to a height h = 3R, then the change in gravitational potential energy is
mgh/R
2/3 mgR
3/4 mgR
mgR/2
