Two planets $A$ and $B$ having masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ move around the sun in circular orbits of $r_1$ and $r_2$ radii respectively. If angular momentum of $A$ is $L$ and that of $B$ is $3L$,the ratio of time period $\left(\frac{T_A}{T_B}\right)$ is:

  • A
    $\left(\frac{r_2}{r_1}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}$
  • B
    $\left(\frac{r_1}{r_2}\right)^3$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{27}\left(\frac{m_2}{m_1}\right)^3$
  • D
    $27\left(\frac{m_1}{m_2}\right)^3$

$A$ 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

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.)

Two particles of equal mass $m$ go round a circle of radius $R$ under the action of their mutual gravitational attraction. The speed of each particle is

Many exoplanets have been discovered by the transit method,where one monitors a dip in the intensity of the parent star as the exoplanet moves in front of it. The exoplanet has a radius $R$ and the parent star has a radius $100 \,R$. If $I_0$ is the intensity observed on Earth due to the parent star,then as the exoplanet transits:

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 $AG = BG = CG = 1 \; m$.
