An object of mass $1 \, kg$ is taken to a height from the surface of Earth which is equal to three times the radius of Earth. The gain in potential energy of the object will be $.... \, MJ$ [Given: $g = 10 \, m/s^2$ and radius of Earth $R = 6400 \, km$].

The escape velocity from a planet is $V_e$. $A$ tunnel is dug along the diameter of the planet and a small body is dropped into it. The speed of the body at the centre of the planet will be

$A$ stationary object is released from a point $P$ at a distance $3R$ from the centre of the moon,which has radius $R$ and mass $M$. Which of the following gives the speed of the object on hitting the moon?

Energy required to move a body of mass $m$ from an orbit of radius $2R$ to $3R$ is

If a body is projected vertically from the surface of the earth with a speed of $8000 \,ms^{-1}$, then the maximum height reached by the body is (Radius of the earth $= 6400 \,km$ and acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $km$)

Two uniform solid spheres of equal radii $R$,but mass $M$ and $4M$ have a centre-to-centre separation $6R$,as shown in the figure. The two spheres are held fixed. $A$ projectile of mass $m$ is projected from the surface of the sphere of mass $M$ directly towards the centre of the second sphere. Obtain an expression for the minimum speed $v$ of the projectile so that it reaches the surface of the second sphere.
