JEE Main & Advanced Physics Gravitation / गुरुत्वाकर्षण Question Bank Self Evaluation Test - Gravitation

  • question_answer
    If masses of two point objects is doubled and distance between them is tripled, then gravitational force of attraction between them will nearly

    A) Increase by 225%

    B)       decrease by 44%

    C) Decrease by 56%

    D)        increase by 125%

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] % change \[=\frac{\left[ \frac{G\left( 2{{m}_{1}} \right)\left( 2{{m}_{2}} \right)}{{{\left( 3r \right)}^{2}}}-\frac{G{{m}_{1}}{{m}_{2}}}{{{r}^{2}}} \right]}{\frac{G{{m}_{1}}{{m}_{2}}}{{{r}^{2}}}}\times 100\] \[\frac{\frac{4}{9}-1}{1}\times 100=-56%\] -ve sign indicates that force of attraction decreases.
