If a person with a spring balance and a body hanging from it goes up and up in an aeroplane,then the reading of the weight of the body as indicated by the spring balance will

Assume that a tunnel is dug along a chord of the earth,at a perpendicular distance $(R / 2)$ from the earth's centre,where '$R$' is the radius of the Earth. The wall of the tunnel is frictionless. If a particle is released in this tunnel,it will execute a simple harmonic motion with a time period:

The gravitational force acting on a particle,due to a solid sphere of uniform density and radius $R$,at a distance of $3 R$ from the centre of the sphere is $F_1$. $A$ spherical hole of radius $(R / 2)$ is now made in the sphere as shown in the figure. The sphere with hole now exerts a force $F_2$ on the same particle. The ratio of $F_1$ and $F_2$ is

$A$ satellite $S$ is moving in an elliptical orbit around the earth. The mass of the satellite is very small compared to the mass of the earth. Then

The correct graph representing the variation of total energy $(E_t)$,kinetic energy $(E_k)$,and potential energy $(U)$ of a satellite with its distance $(r)$ from the centre of the Earth is:

Every planet revolves around the sun in an elliptical orbit. Which of the following statements are correct?
$A.$ The force acting on a planet is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the sun.
$B.$ The force acting on the planet is inversely proportional to the product of the masses of the planet and the sun.
$C.$ The centripetal force acting on the planet is directed away from the sun.
$D.$ The square of the time period of revolution of a planet around the sun is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of the elliptical orbit.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
