Two point masses of mass $4m$ and $m$ respectively,separated by a distance $d$,are revolving under their mutual force of attraction. The ratio of their kinetic energies is:

  • A
    $1 : 4$
  • B
    $1 : 5$
  • C
    $1 : 1$
  • D
    $1 : 2$

$A$ large spherical mass $M$ is fixed at one position and two identical point masses $m$ are kept on a line passing through the centre of $M$ (see figure). The point masses are connected by a rigid massless rod of length $\ell$ and this assembly is free to move along the line connecting them. All three masses interact only through their mutual gravitational interaction. When the point mass nearer to $M$ is at a distance $r = 3\ell$ from $M$,the tension in the rod is zero for $m = k\left(\frac{M}{288}\right)$. The value of $k$ 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

The earth takes $24\; h$ to rotate once about its axis. How much time (in $min$) does the sun take to shift by $1^o$ when viewed from the earth?

Three identical particles $A, B$,and $C$ of mass $100 \, kg$ each are placed in a straight line with $AB = BC = 13 \, m$. The gravitational force on a fourth particle $P$ of the same mass is $F$,when placed at a distance $13 \, m$ from the particle $B$ on the perpendicular bisector of the line $AC$. The value of $F$ will be approximately $....G$.
