A) 1.5R
B) 2.5R
C) \[4.5\,R\]
D) 7.5 R
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Let at O there will be a collision. If smallersphere moves \[x\]distance to reach at\[O,\] thenbigger sphere will move a distance of\[(9R-x).\] \[F=\frac{GM\times 5M}{{{(12R-x)}^{2}}}\] \[{{a}_{small}}=\frac{F}{M}=\frac{G\times 5M}{{{(12R-x)}^{2}}}\] \[{{a}_{big}}=\frac{F}{5M}=\frac{GM}{{{(12R-x)}^{2}}}\] \[x=\frac{1}{2}{{a}_{small}}{{t}^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{G\times 5M}{{{(12R-x)}^{2}}}{{t}^{2}}\] ?(i) \[(9R-x)=\frac{1}{2}{{a}_{big}}{{t}^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{GM}{{{(12R-x)}^{2}}}{{t}^{2}}\] ?(ii) Thus, dividing Eq. (i) by Eq. (ii), we get \[\frac{x}{9R-x}=5\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x=45R-5x\Rightarrow 6x=45R\]\[\therefore \]\[x=7.5R\]You need to login to perform this action.
