NEET Physics: Gravitation — MCQ Test 20

Q6. Two identical masses of \( 5 \, \text{kg} \) each are placed at the vertices A and B of an equilateral triangle ABC with side length \( 2 \, \text{m} \). What is the gravitational force on a \( 10 \, \text{kg} \) mass at vertex C? (\( G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{N m}^2/\text{kg}^2 \))

Q7. Four equal masses of \( 3 \, \text{kg} \) are at the vertices of a square with side \( 2 \, \text{m} \). What is the net force on one mass? (\( G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{N m}^2/\text{kg}^2 \))

Q8. How much energy is required to move a \( 500 \, \text{kg} \) satellite from \( 5 R_E \) to \( 10 R_E \) from Earth’s center? (\( M_E = 6 \times 10^{24} \, \text{kg}, R_E = 6.4 \times 10^6 \, \text{m}, G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{N m}^2/\text{kg}^2 \))

Q9. A \( 1100 \, \text{kg} \) satellite orbits Earth at \( 18 R_E \) from the center. What is its total energy? (\( M_E = 6 \times 10^{24} \, \text{kg}, R_E = 6.4 \times 10^6 \, \text{m}, G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{N m}^2/\text{kg}^2 \))

Q10. What is the gravitational force on a \( 10 \, \text{kg} \) mass \( 8 \, \text{m} \) from the center of a spherical shell of mass \( 450 \, \text{kg} \) and radius \( 6 \, \text{m} \)? (\( G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{N m}^2/\text{kg}^2 \))
