NEET Physics: Gravitation — MCQ Test 15

Q6. How much energy is required to move a \( 300 \, \text{kg} \) satellite from \( 7 R_E \) to \( 14 R_E \) from Earth’s center? (\( M_E = 6 \times 10^{24} \, \text{kg}, R_E = 6.4 \times 10^6 \, \text{m}, G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{N m}^2/\text{kg}^2 \))

Q7. A planet orbits the Sun with a period of 12 years. If Earth’s orbital radius is \( 1.5 \times 10^{11} \, \text{m} \), what is its semi-major axis?

Q8. What is the gravitational potential due to Earth at \( 5.12 \times 10^7 \, \text{m} \) from its center? (\( M_E = 6 \times 10^{24} \, \text{kg}, G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{N m}^2/\text{kg}^2 \))

Q9. A \( 1000 \, \text{kg} \) satellite orbits Earth at \( 16 R_E \) from the center. What is its total energy? (\( M_E = 6 \times 10^{24} \, \text{kg}, R_E = 6.4 \times 10^6 \, \text{m}, G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{N m}^2/\text{kg}^2 \))
