A body of mass m is moving in a circular orbit of radius R about a planet of mass M. At some instant, it splits into two equal masses. The first mass moves in a circular orbit of radius R/2 . And the other mass, in a circular orbit of radius (3R)/(2) . The difference between the final and initial total energies is :

A body is moving in a low circular orbit about a planet of mass M and radius R. The radius of the orbit can be taken to be R itself. Then the ratio of the speed of this body in the orbit to the escape velocity from the planet is :

The potential energy of a particle of mass ? at a distance ? from a fixed point ? is given by V(r)=kr^(2)//2 , where ? is a positive constant of appropriate dimensions. This particle is moving in a circular orbit of radius ? about the point ?. If ? is the speed of the particle and ? is the magnitude of its angular momentum about ?, which of the following statements is (are) true?

A star like the sun has serveral bodies moving around it at different distance. Consider that all of them are moving in circular orbits. Let r be the distance of the body from the centre of the star and let its linear velocity be upsilon , angular velocity omega , kinetic energy K , gravitational potential energy U , total energy E and angular momentum L . As the radius r of the orbit increase, determine which of the above quantities increase and which ones decrease.

A particle of charge -q and mass m moves in a circular orbit about a fixed charge +Q. Show that the r^(3) alpha T^(2) law, is satisfied, where r is the radius of orbit and T is time period.

A satellite of mass M is in a circular orbit of radius R about the centre of the earth. A meteorite of the same mass, falling towards the earth, collides with the satellite completely inelastically. The speeds of the satellite and the meteorite are the same, just before the collision. The subsequent motion of the combined body will be:
