Ques. 1JEE Main 2024, 5 April (Morning Shift)

Match List I with List II : (Where a = radius of planet orbit, r = radius of planet, M = mass of Sun, m = mass of planet) Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. (A)-(II), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(III)
  2. (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
  3. (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
  4. (A)-(I), (B)-(IV), (C)-(II), (D)-(III)

Answer

(1) (A)-(II), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(III)

Solution

mv2a = GMma2 (gravity gives the centripetal force)

(A): K = 12mv2 = GMm2a ⇒ (A) is (II)

(B): U = - GMma ⇒ (B) is (I)

(C): E = K + U = - GMm2a ⇒ (C) is (IV)

(D): escape energy for unit mass = -Usurface = Gmr ⇒ (D) is (III)

Answer: (1)
