C) \[\nu _{f}^{2}=\nu _{i}^{2}+\frac{2G{{M}_{e}}}{{{\operatorname{R}}_{e}}}\,\left( 1-\frac{1}{10} \right)\]
D) \[\nu _{f}^{2}=\nu _{i}^{2}+\frac{2Gm}{{{\operatorname{R}}_{e}}}\,\left( 1-\frac{1}{10} \right)\]
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Applying law of conservation of energy for asteroid at a distance \[10\,\,{{\operatorname{R}}_{e}}\] and at earth?s surface, \[{{K}_{i}}\,\,+\,\,{{U}_{i}}\,\,=\,\,{{K}_{f}}+{{U}_{f}}\] (i) Now \[{{K}_{f}}=\frac{1}{2}m\nu _{f}^{2}\,and\,{{U}_{f}}=-\frac{G{{M}_{e}}m}{{{\operatorname{R}}_{e}}}\] Substituting these values in Eq. (i), we get \[\frac{1}{2}m\nu _{i}^{2}-\frac{G{{M}_{e}}m}{10{{\operatorname{R}}_{e}}}\,=\,\,\frac{1}{2}m\nu _{f}^{2}-\frac{G{{M}_{e}}m}{{{\operatorname{R}}_{e}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\frac{1}{2}m\nu _{f}^{2}=\frac{1}{2}m\nu _{i}^{2}+\frac{G{{M}_{e}}m}{{{\operatorname{R}}_{e}}}\,\,-\,\,\frac{G{{M}_{e}}m}{10\,{{\operatorname{R}}_{e}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\nu _{f}^{2}=\nu _{i}^{2}+\frac{2G{{M}_{e}}}{{{\operatorname{R}}_{e}}}\,\,-\,\,\frac{2G{{M}_{e}}}{10\,{{\operatorname{R}}_{e}}}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,\nu _{f}^{2}=\,\,\nu _{i}^{2}+\frac{2G{{M}_{e}}}{{{\operatorname{R}}_{e}}}\left( 1-\frac{1}{10} \right)\]You need to login to perform this action.
