The distance between the Sun and the Earth is $1.6 \times 10^{11} \,m$ and the radius of the Earth is $6.4 \times 10^6 \,m$. The ratio of the angular momentum of the Earth around the Sun to the angular momentum around its own axis is approximately (Assume the Earth as a solid sphere with uniform mass density and that it rotates around the Sun in a circular path.)

State whether the following statements are true or false:
$(a)$ The value of acceleration due to gravity increases as we go to a depth $d$ below the Earth's surface.
$(b)$ If the escape velocity for an object of mass $m$ on the Earth's surface is $11.2 \, km/s$,then the escape velocity for an object of mass $2m$ is $22.4 \, km/s$.
$(c)$ If the Earth's gravitational attraction suddenly disappears,the mass of an object becomes zero,but its weight remains the same.

Three equal masses of $m \; kg$ each are fixed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle $ABC.$
$(a)$ What is the force acting on a mass $2 \; m$ placed at the centroid $G$ of the triangle?
$(b)$ What is the force if the mass at the vertex $A$ is doubled?
Take $AG = BG = CG = 1 \; m$.

The planet Mars has two moons,Phobos and Deimos.
$(i)$ Phobos has a period of $7$ hours,$39$ minutes and an orbital radius of $9.4 \times 10^{3} \; km$. Calculate the mass of Mars.
$(ii)$ Assume that Earth and Mars move in circular orbits around the Sun,with the Martian orbit being $1.52$ times the orbital radius of the Earth. What is the length of the Martian year in days?

$A$ particle of mass $M$ is situated at the centre of a spherical shell of same mass and radius $a.$ The magnitude of the gravitational potential at a point situated at $a/2$ distance from the centre,will be

$A$ geostationary satellite is at a height $h$ above the surface of the Earth. If the Earth's radius is $R$,which of the following statements is correct?
