Two particles,each of mass $m$,are moving in a circle of radius $R$ under the influence of their mutual gravitational attraction. What is their speed?

  • A
    $v = \frac{1}{2R}\sqrt{\frac{1}{Gm}}$
  • B
    $v = \sqrt{\frac{Gm}{2R}}$
  • C
    $v = \frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\frac{Gm}{R}}$
  • D
    $v = \sqrt{\frac{4Gm}{R}}$

$A$ large spherical mass $M$ is fixed at one position and two identical point masses $m$ are kept on a line passing through the centre of $M$ (see figure). The point masses are connected by a rigid massless rod of length $\ell$ and this assembly is free to move along the line connecting them. All three masses interact only through their mutual gravitational interaction. When the point mass nearer to $M$ is at a distance $r = 3\ell$ from $M$,the tension in the rod is zero for $m = k\left(\frac{M}{288}\right)$. The value of $k$ is

The gravitational force acting on a particle,due to a solid sphere of uniform density and radius $R$,at a distance of $3 R$ from the centre of the sphere is $F_1$. $A$ spherical hole of radius $(R / 2)$ is now made in the sphere as shown in the figure. The sphere with hole now exerts a force $F_2$ on the same particle. The ratio of $F_1$ and $F_2$ is

$A$ particle of mass $m$ starts from rest at a distance $R$ from the centre and along the axis of a fixed ring of radius $R$ and mass $M$. Its velocity at the centre of the ring is:
