If g is the acceleration due to gravity at the earth’s surface and r is the radius of the earth, the escape velocity for the body to escape out of earth’s gravitational field is

Explanation

The escape velocity ( u) from the Earth's gravitational field is given by the formula $v = \\sqrt{2gr}$. Here, g is the acceleration due to gravity and r is the radius of the Earth. This formula is derived from equating the kinetic energy required to escape Earth's gravity to the gravitational potential energy.

The escape velocity of a particle of mass m varies as

Explanation

Because it does not depend on the mass of projectile

The escape velocity of an object from the earth depends upon the mass of earth (M), its mean density $(\rho)$, its radius (R) and gravitational constant (G), thus the formula for escape veloctiy is

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

The escape velocity ( u) can be derived from the relationship between gravitational force and the required kinetic energy to escape. Given the mass of the Earth (M), its mean density ( ho), its radius (R), and the gravitational constant (G), the formula is $ v = R \\sqrt{\\frac{8 \\pi}{3} G \\rho} $. This formula is derived from the standard escape velocity formula and the relation between density, mass, and volume.

Two small and heavy sphere, each of mass M, are placed distance r apart on a horizontal surface the gravitational potential at a mid point on the line joining the center of spheres is

Explanation

Gravitational potential of A at 0 = $ - { GM \over r/2 } = - { 2GM \over r } $

of B at 0 = $ - { GM \over r/2 } = - { 2GM \over r } $ Total potential at 0 = $- { 4GM \over r } $

The escape velocity of a body from earth’s surface is Ve. The escape velocity of the same body from a height equal to 7 R from earth’s surface will be

Explanation

$ Ve \alpha { 1\over \sqrt r } $ $ { V_1 \over V_2 } = \sqrt{ r_2 \over r_1 } = \sqrt { R+7R \over R } = 2 \sqrt 2 \Rightarrow V_2 = { V_1 \over 2 \sqrt 2 } $

An artificial satellite is revolving round the earth in a circular orbit. its velocity is half the escape velocity. Its height from the earth surface is = km

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

$ v = \sqrt { GM \over R+ h } = {1 \over 2 } \sqrt { 2GM \over R } $ $ \therefore 4R = 2 (R+h )$ $ \therefore h = R = 6400 km$

The escape velocity of a planet having mass 6 times and radius 2 times as that of earth is..........

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

$ { V_p \over V_e } = \sqrt {Mp \over Me} \times { Re \over Rp } = \sqrt { 6 \times {1 \over 2 } } = \sqrt 3 $ $ \therefore Ve = \sqrt 3 Ve $

There are two planets, the ratio of radius of two planets is k but the acceleration due to gravity of both planets are g what will be the ratio of their escape velocity.

Explanation

$ \upsilon = \sqrt{2gR} \therefore {V1 \over V2 } = \sqrt {g1 \over g2 } .{R1\over R2} = \sqrt {gk} = (kg)^ {1/2} $

The escape velocity of a body on the surface of the earth is 11.2 km/sec. If the mass of the earth is increases to twice its present value and the radius of the earth becomes half, the escape velocity becomes = _________$kms^{–1}$

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

$ \therefore Ve = \sqrt {2GM \over R } \therefore Ve \alpha \sqrt { M \over R } $ If M becomes double and R becomes half then escape velocity; becomes two times

3 particle each of mass m are kept at vertices of an equilateral triangle of side L. The gravitational field at center due to these particies is ................

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Due to three particles net intensity at the center $ \vec I = \vec I_A + \vec I_B + \vec I_C = 0 $ because out of these three intensities ARE equal in magnitude and between each other is 120’
