An object of mass \(1 kg\) is taken to a height from the surface of earth which is equal to three times the radius of earth. The gain in potential energy of the object will be \(....MJ\)[If, \(g =10\,ms ^{-2}\) and radius of earth \(=6400\,km\) ]
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(48\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(U _{ i }=\frac{- GMm }{ R }\)
\(U _{ f }=-\frac{ GMm }{4 R }\)
\(\Delta U = U _{ f }- U _{ i }=\frac{3 GMm }{4 R }\)
\(=\frac{3}{4} mgR\)
\(=\frac{3}{4} \times 1 \times 10 \times 64 \times 10^{5}\)
\(=48\,MJ\)

- An infinite plane sheet of charge having uniform surface charge density \(+\sigma_5 \mathrm{C} / \mathrm{m}^2\) is placed on \(\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{y}\) plane. Another infinitely long line charge having uniform linear charge density \(+\lambda_e \mathrm{C} / \mathrm{m}\) is placed at \(z=4 \mathrm{~m}\) plane and parallel to \(y\)-axis. If the magnitude values \(\left|\sigma_s\right|=2\left|\lambda_{\mathrm{e}}\right|\) then at point \((0,0,2)\), the ratio of magnitudes of electric field values due to sheet charge to that of line charge is \(\pi \sqrt{\mathrm{n}}: 1\).
