For a simple pendulum, a graph is plotted between itskinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE) against its displacement d . Which one of the following represents these correctly? (graph are schematic and not drawn to scale)

Kepler's third law states that square of period of revolution (T) of a planet around the sun is proportional to third power of average distance r between sun and planet. That means T^2 = Kr^3 here K is constant. If the masses of sun and planet are M and m respectively then as per Newton's law of gravitation force of attraction between them is F = (GMm)/r^2 , here G is gravitational constant the relation between G and K is described as

Kepler's third law states that square of period revolution (T) of a planet around the sun is proportional to third power of average distance i between sun and planet i.e. T^(2)=Kr^(3) here K is constant if the mass of sun and planet are M and m respectively then as per Newton's law of gravitational the force of alteaction between them is F=(GMm)/(r^(2)) , here G is gravitational constant. The relation between G and K is described as

Assertion : For circular orbits, the law of periods is T^(2) prop r^(3) , where M is the mass of sun and r is the radius of orbit. Reason : The square of the period T of any planet about the sun is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis a of the orbit.

Two solid spherical planets have equal radii and mass of 4M and 9M and distance between their centre is 6R. A body of mass m is projected toward heavy planet, then what should be the ditsance of body of mass m from lighter planet so that the gravitational force on it will be zero ?

Consider different planets revolving in different circular orbits around a star of very large mass. If the gravitatonal force between the planet and the star varies as r^((-5)/2), r = distance between them. How does the square of the orbital period T depend on the distance r?

The escape velocity on the surface of earth is 11.2 km/s. What will be its value on a planet having double the radius and eight times the mass of earth?

A planet is revolving around the Sun in an elliptical orbit. Its closest distance from the sun is r_(min) . The farthest distance from the sun is r_(max) if the orbital angular velocity of the planet when it is nearest to the Sun omega then the orbital angular velocity at the point when it i at the farthest distanec from the sun is

The figure shows elliptical orbit of a planet m about the sun S. the shaded area SCD is twice the shaded area SAB. If t_(1) be the time for the planet to move from C to D and t_(2) is the time to move from A to B, then:
