Since the water removed from the pond will be equal to the water displacement by the (man + boat) system, the level of water in the pond remains the same.

T = 2 π r 3 G M e

T B − T A = 2 π G M e ( r B 3 / 2 − r A 3 / 2 ) = 2 × 3 . 1 4 6 . 6 7 × 1 0 − 1 1 × 6 × 1 0 2 4 [ ( 8 × 1 0 6 ) 3 2 − ( 7 × 1 0 6 ) 3 2 ]

F 1 c o s 4 5 ° + F 2 c o s 4 5 ° + F 3 = m v 2 r

⇒ G m 2 ( 2 r ) 2 . 1 2 + G m 2 ( 2 r ) 2 . 1 2 + G m 2 ( 2 r ) 2 = m v 2 r

⇒ v = G m 4 r ( 2 2 + 1 )

Putting m = 1 kg and r = 1 m,

v = 1 2 G ( 1 + 2 2 )

At each point in the orbit, there is a variation in the kinetic and potential energy of the satellite. If one increases, the other one decreases. Similarly, if the other one increases, the first one decreases. But their amount of increment or decrement is such that the total sum i.e. mechanical ener

This is because the satellite doesn't have any other external third force acting upon it. Its original total energy comprises kinetic and potential energy, which remains constant since the gravity has zero influence over the satellite.

According to question, we can write

  d = 2 h R ⇒ d 2 d 1 = h 2 h 1 ⇒ h 2 = ( d 2 d 1 ) 2 h 1 = ( 2 1 ) 2 × 1 2 5 = 5 0 0 m

Increment in height of tower = h2 – h1 = 500 – 125 = 375 m
