If the gravitational force between two objects were proportional to $\frac{1}{R}$ (and not as $\frac{1}{R^2}$) where $R$ is the separation between them,then a particle in a circular orbit under such a force would have its orbital speed $v$ proportional to

  • A
    $\frac{1}{R^2}$
  • B
    $R^0$
  • C
    $R^1$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{R}$

The period of moon's rotation around the earth is nearly $29$ days. If moon's mass were $2$ fold, its present value and all other things remained unchanged, the period of moon's rotation would be nearly ......... $days$.

The mean radius of Earth is $R$,and its angular speed on its axis is $\omega$. What will be the radius of orbit of a geostationary satellite?

$A$ satellite revolving around the earth at a certain height experiences acceleration due to gravity equal to $\frac{16}{49} g_0$,where $g_0$ is the acceleration due to gravity on the earth's surface. If $R$ is the radius of earth,then the square of time period of the satellite's revolution is equal to $K\left[\frac{\pi^2 R^3}{G M}\right]$. The value of $K$ is

The correct formula for the height $h$ of a satellite from the Earth's surface is:
