The additional kinetic energy to be provided to a satellite of mass m revolving around a planet of mass M, to transfer it from a circular orbit of radius R1 to another of radius R2(R2> R1) is
(1) Centre a gravity (CG) of a body is the point at which the weight of the body acts.
(2) Centre of mass coincides with the centre of gravity if the earth is assumed to have infinitely large radius
(3) To evaluate the gravitational field intensity due to anybody can be considered to be concentrated at its CG.
(4) The radius of gyration of anybody rotating about an axis is the length of the perpendicular dropped from the CG of the body to the axis.

The figure shows elliptical orbit of a planet m about the sun S. The shaded are SCD is twice the shaded area SAB. If t1 is the time for the planet to move from C to D and t2 is the time to move from A to B then,
t1 > t2
t1 =4 t2
t1 = 2t2
t1 = 2t2

15m/s and 16 m/s
16 m/s and 17 m/s
16 m/s and 17 m/s
Assuming the sun to have a spherical outer surface of radius r, radiating like a black body at a temperature to C, the power received by a unit surface (normal to the incident rays) at a distance R from the centre of the sun is :
Two satellites of earth S1 and S2, are moving in the same orbit. The mass of S1 is four times the mass of S2. Which one of the following statement is true?

S1 and S2 are moving with the same speed
S1 and S2 are moving with the same speed
The earth is assumed to be a sphere of radius R. A platform is arranged at a height R from the surface of the earth. The escape velocity of a body from this platform is fve, where ve is its escape velocity from the surface of the earth. The value of f is
