Gravitation Question 336

Question: The potential energy of a rock, having mass m and rotating at a height of$ [3.2\times 10^{6}m] $ from the earth surface, is

Options:

A) $ [-6,,mgR_{e}] $

B) $ [-0.67,,mgR_{e}] $

C) $ [-0.99,,mgR_{e}] $

D) $ [-0.33,,mgR_{e}] $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

  • Mass of the $ [rock=m] $ and height of rock from earth $ [\left( h \right)= R_{e}/2 =3.2\times 10^{6}m] $

    We know that gravitational potential energy of the rock rotating at height

    $ [h=-\frac{GM_{e}m}{{R_{e}}+h}=-\frac{2}{3}mgR_{e}] $

    $ [\left( where, GM_{e}= gR_{e}^{2} and h = R_{e} \right)] $
