The dependence of the intensity of the gravitational field $(E)$ of the Earth on the distance $(r)$ from the center of the Earth is correctly represented by:

Suppose the acceleration due to gravity at the earth's surface is $10 \, m/s^2$ and at the surface of Mars it is $4.0 \, m/s^2$. $A$ $60 \, kg$ passenger travels from the Earth to Mars in a spaceship moving with a constant velocity. Neglect all other objects in the sky. Which curve in the figure best represents the weight (net gravitational force) of the passenger as a function of time?

$A$ star $2.5$ times the mass of the sun and collapsed to a size of $12 \;km$ rotates with a speed of $1.2 \;rev/s$. (Extremely compact stars of this kind are known as neutron stars. Certain stellar objects called pulsars belong to this category). Will an object placed on its equator remain stuck to its surface due to gravity? (Mass of the sun $= 2 \times 10^{30} \;kg$)

$A$ solid sphere of radius $R$ gravitationally attracts a particle of mass $m$ placed at a distance of $3R$ from its centre with a force $F_{1}$. Now,a spherical cavity of radius $\frac{R}{2}$ is made in the sphere (as shown in the figure) such that the cavity is tangent to the centre of the sphere and the outer surface. The force on the particle becomes $F_{2}$. The value of $F_{1} : F_{2}$ is:

How many times is the escape velocity $(V_e)$ of the orbital velocity $(V_0)$ for a satellite revolving near the Earth?

$A$ planet is orbiting the sun in an elliptical orbit. Let $U$ denote the potential energy and $K$ denote the kinetic energy of the planet at an arbitrary point on the orbit. Choose the correct statement.
