PhysicsGravitationJEE Main 2022

An object of mass 1 kg is taken to a height from the surface of earth which is equal to three times the radius of earth. The gain in potential energy of the object will be [If, g = 10 and radius of earth = 6400 km]

Answer: (1)

Solution

= −GMm/R and = −GMm/4R (at a distance 4R from the centre). The gain is = − =
