A body of mass \( m \) is projected with velocity \( \lambda v_{e} \) in vertically upward direction from the surface of the earth into space. It is given that \( v_{e} \) is escape velocity and \( \lambda < 1 \). If air resistance is considered to be negligible, the maximum height from the centre of earth, to which the body can go, will be: (\( R \): radius of earth)

The approximate height from the surface of earth at which the weight of the body becomes \( \frac{1}{3} \) of its weight on the surface of earth is: [Radius of earth \( R = 6400 \, \text{km} \) and \( \sqrt{3} = 1.732 \)]

Two satellites \( S_1 \) and \( S_2 \) are revolving in circular orbits around a planet with radius \( R_1 = 3200 \, \text{km} \) and \( R_2 = 800 \, \text{km} \) respectively. The ratio of speed of satellite \( S_1 \) to the speed of satellite \( S_2 \) in their respective orbits would be \( \frac{1}{x} \) where \( x = \) ______________.

A body is projected vertically upwards from the surface of earth with a velocity equal to one third of escape velocity. The maximum height attained by the body will be: (Take radius of earth \( = 6400 \, \text{km} \) and \( g = 10 \, \text{ms}^{-2} \))

The escape velocity of a body on a planet ‘A’ is \( 12 \, \text{km s}^{-1} \). The escape velocity of the body on another planet ‘B’, whose density is four times and radius is half of the planet ‘A’, is:

Four spheres each of mass \( m \) form a square of side \( d \) (as shown in figure). A fifth sphere of mass \( M \) is situated at the centre of square. The total gravitational potential energy of the system is:

Two satellites \( A \) and \( B \), having masses in the ratio \( 4:3 \), are revolving in circular orbits of radii \( 3r \) and \( 4r \) respectively around the earth. The ratio of total mechanical energy of \( A \) to \( B \) is:

Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A: If we move from poles to equator, the direction of acceleration due to gravity of earth always points towards the center of earth without any variation in its magnitude.

Two planets \( A \) and \( B \) of equal mass are having their period of revolutions \( T_{A} \) and \( T_{B} \) such that \( T_{A}=2T_{B} \).

The value of \( \alpha \) will be _________. (use \( R_e = 6400 \, \text{km} \))

Two objects of equal masses placed at certain distance from each other attracts each other with a force of \( F \). If one-third mass of one object is transferred to the other object, then the new force will be:

An object is taken to a height above the surface of earth at a distance \( \dfrac{5}{4} R \) from the centre of the earth. Where radius of earth, \( R = 6400 \, \text{km} \). The percentage decrease in the weight of the object will be:

Assume there are two identical simple pendulum clocks. Clock-\( 1 \) is placed on the earth and Clock-\( 2 \) is placed on a space station located at a height \( h \) above the earth surface. Clock-\( 1 \) and Clock-\( 2 \) operate at time periods \( 4\,\text{s} \) and \( 6\,\text{s} \) respectively. Then value of \( h \) is: \( \big(\text{consider radius of earth } R_{E}=6400\,\text{km} \text{ and } g \text{ on earth } 10\,\text{m}/\text{s}^{2}\big) \)
