During the motion of a planet from perihelion to aphelion,the work done by the gravitational force of the sun on it is ...........

$A$ small point mass $m$ is placed at a distance $2R$ from the centre $O$ of a big uniform solid sphere of mass $M$ and radius $R$. The gravitational force on $m$ due to $M$ is $F_1$. $A$ spherical part of radius $R/3$ is removed from the big sphere as shown in the figure and the gravitational force on $m$ due to the remaining part of $M$ is found to be $F_2$. The value of the ratio $F_1: F_2$ is

Two satellites $s_1$ and $s_2$ of equal masses revolve in the same sense around a heavy planet in coplanar circular orbits of radii $R$ and $4R$. Which of the following statements is correct?

The figure shows the variation of the gravitational acceleration $a_g$ of four planets with the radial distance $r$ from the center of the planet for $r \ge R$ (where $R$ is the radius of the planet). Plots $1$ and $2$ coincide for $r \ge R_2$,and plots $3$ and $4$ coincide for $r \ge R_4$. The sequence of the planets in the descending order of their densities is:

The relative uncertainty in the period of a satellite orbiting around the Earth is $10^{-2}$. If the relative uncertainty in the radius of the orbit is negligible,the relative uncertainty in the mass of the Earth is:

$A$ particle of mass $M$ is situated at the centre of a spherical shell of same mass $M$ and radius $a$. The gravitational potential at a point situated at a distance of $\frac{a}{2}$ from the centre will be:
