A ball is dropped from a satellite revolving around the earth at a height of 120 km. The ball will
continue to move with the same speed along a straight line tangentially to the satellite at that time.
continue to move with the same speed along the original orbit of the satellite
fall down to earth gradually
go far away in space
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
The satellite of mass m is orbiting around the earth in a circular orbit with a velocity v. What will be its total energy ?
mv2
A planet is moving in elliptical orbit around the sun. If T, U, E and L stand for its kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, total energy and magnitude of angular momentum about the centre of force, which of the following is correct?
T is conserved.
U is always positive.
E is always negative.
L is conserved but direction of vector L changes continuously.
The escape velocity of a sphere of mass m is given by (G = universal gravitational constant, Me = mass of earth and Re = radius of earth)
A roller coaster is designed such that riders experience "weightlessness" as they go round the top of a hill whose radius of curvature is 20 m. The speed of the car at the top of the hill is between
14 m/s and 15 m/s
15 m/s and 16 m/s
16 m/s and 17 m/s
13 m/s and 14 m/s
The period of revolution of planet A round the sun is 8 times that of B. The distance of A from the sun is how many times greater than that of B from the sun ?
