(a) Escape velocity of a body from the Earth is given by the relation:

vesc = 2gR …. (1)

Where g = acceleration due to gravity and R = radius of the Earth

So escape velocity is independent of the mass of the body.

(b) It does not depend on the location from where it is projected.

(c) Does not depend on the direction of projection

(d) Depends on the height of the location from where the body is launched.

(a) Total mechanical energy of a satellite is the sum of its kinetic energy (always positive) and potential energy (can be either positive or negative). At infinity, the gravitational potential energy of the satellite is zero. As the Earth-Satellite system is a bound system, the total energy of the satellite is negative. Thus the total energy of an orbiting satellite at infinity is equal to the negative of its kinetic energy.

 

(b) An orbiting satellite acquires a certain amount of energy that enables it to revolve around the Earth. This energy is provided by its orbit. It requires relatively lesser energy to move out of the influ

Mass of our galaxy Milky Way, M = 2.5 *1011 solar mass

Solar mass = Mass of the Sun = 2.0 *1030 kg

Mass of our galaxy = 2.5 *1011* 2.0 *1030 = 5 *1041 kg

Diameter of the Milky Way, d = 105 ly

Radius of the Milky Way = 5 *104 ly

1 ly = 9.46 *1015 m

r = 5 *104* 9.46 *1015 m = 4.73 *1020 m

As a star revolves around the galactic centre of the Milky Way, its time period is given by the relation: τ = ( 4π2r3GM)12 = ( 4*3.142*4.733*10606.67*10-11*5*1041)12 = 1.12 *1016s = 3.55 x 108 years

The rotation period of the satellite Io, Tju = 1.769 days = 1.769 x 24 x 60 x 60s

Radius of the Orbit is given by the relation, Rju = 4.22 *108 m

Mass is given by the relation: Mj = 4π2Rju3GTju2 ……(i)

Where Mj = mass of Jupiter and G = Universal gravitational constant

Orbital period of the Earth, Te = 365.25 days = 365.25 x 24 x 60 x 60 s

Orbital radius of the Earth, Re = 1 AU = 1.496 x 1011 m

Mass of Sun is given as : Ms = 4π2Re3GTe2 …(ii)

MsMj =4π2Re3GTe2 * GTju24π2Rju3 =Re3Te2 * Tju2Rju3= ( 1.496x10114.22*108)3 *(1.769x24x60x60365.25x24x60x60)2 = 1045.04

Hence it can be inferred that the mass of Jupiter is about one – thousandth that

Time taken by the Earth to complete one revolution around the Sun,  Te = 1 year

Orbital radius of the Earth in its orbit,  Re = 1 AU

Time taken by the planet to complete one revolution around the Sun,  Tp = 12Te = 12 year

Orbital radius of the planet = Rp

From Kepler's 3rd law of planetary motion, we can write:

RpRe)3 = ( TpTe)2

RpRe = ( TpTe)2/3 = ( 12)2/3 = 0.63

Hence, the orbital radius of the planet will be 0.63 times smaller than that of the Earth

(a) Decreases - Acceleration due to gravity at depth h is given by gh = (1 – 2hRe )g, where Re=Radiusoftheearth, g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Earth. From this equation, it is clear that acceleration due to gravity decreases with increase in height

 

(b) Decreases – Acceleration due to gravity at depth d is given by gd = (1- dRe )g. So the acceleration due to gravity decreases with increase in depth.

 

(c) Mass of the body – Acceleration due to gravity of body mass m is given by the relation g = GMR2 , where G = Universal gravitation constant, M = mass of the Earth and R = radius of the Ear

Ultrasonic beep frequency emitted by bat, ν = 40 kHz

Velocity of the bat, vb = 0.03v, where v = velocity of sound in air

The apparent frequency of the sound striking the wall is given as:

ν'=(vv-vb ) ν = (vv-0.03v ) *40 = 400.97 kHz = 41.24 kHz

This frequency is reflected by the stationary wall ( vs=0) towards the bat

The frequency ( ν'')ofthereceivedsoundisgivenbytherelation:

ν''=(v+vbv ) ν' = ( v+0.03vv ) *41.24kHz = 1.03 *41.24 = 42.47 kHz

Let vs and vp be the velocities and ts and tp be the time taken to reach the seismograph from the epicentre of S and P waves respectively.

Let L be the distance between the epicentre and the seismograph.

We have:

L = vsts …. (i)

L = vptp …. (ii)

It is given,  vs = 4 km/s and vp = 8 km/s

From equation (i) and (ii), we get

ts = 8 tp or ts= 2 tp …. (iii)

It is also given,

ts-tp=240s so tp=240sandts=480s

From equation (ii), we get, L = 8 *240 = 1920 km

Hence, the earthquake occurred at a distance of 1920 km from the seismograph.

Operating frequency of the SONAR system,  ν = 40 kHz

Speed of enemy submarine,  ve= 360 km/h = 100 m/s

Speed of sound in water, v = 1450 m/s

The source is at rest and the observer (enemy submarine) is moving towards it. Hence, the apparent frequency (f') received and reflected by the submarine is given by the relation:

f = ( v+vev)ν=  ( 1450+1001450)*40 = 42.76 kHz

The frequency (f') received by the enemy submarine is given by the relation:

f' = ( vv-ve )f = ( 14501450-100 ) *42.76 = 45.93 kHz
