Acceleration =
For part OP, the acceleration is positive as the velocity is increasing. Slope is increasing. For part PQ, the acceleration is zero. Horizontal straight line shows that the velocity is zero. For part QR, acceleration is negative. It shows retarded motion. Velocity is decreasing as the slope decreases with time.

Suppose the gravitational force varies inversely as the nth power of distance. Then the time period of a planet in circular orbit of radius R around the sun will be proportional to
Rn
Figure shows the variation of energy with the orbit radius r of a satellite in a circular motion. Mark the correct statement
C is total energy, B kinetic energy and A is potential energy.
A is kinetic energy, B total energy and C potential energy
A and 8 are the kinetic and potential energies and C the total energy of the satellite.
C and A arc kinetic and potential energy respectively and B the total energy of the satellite.
Assertion: When the velocity of projection of a body is made n times, its time of flight becomes n times.
Reason: Range of projectile does not depend on
the initial velocity of a body.
If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
If assertion is true but reason is false
If both assertion and reason are false
A slab consists of two layers of different materials of the same thickness and having thermal conductivities K1 and K2 are connected in series. The equivalent thermal conductivity of the slab is
