The figure shows the variation of the gravitational acceleration $a_g$ of four planets with the radial distance $r$ from the center of the planet for $r \ge R$ (where $R$ is the radius of the planet). Plots $1$ and $2$ coincide for $r \ge R_2$,and plots $3$ and $4$ coincide for $r \ge R_4$. The sequence of the planets in the descending order of their densities is:

  • A
    $1, 2, 3, 4$
  • B
    $4, 3, 2, 1$
  • C
    $2, 1, 4, 3$
  • D
    $1, 2, 4, 3$

$A$ spiral galaxy can be approximated as an infinitesimally thin disc of uniform surface mass density located at $z=0$. Two stars $A$ and $B$ start from rest from heights $2z_{0}$ and $z_{0}$ (where $z_{0} \ll$ radial extent of the disc),respectively,and fall towards the disc,cross over to the other side,and execute periodic oscillations. The ratio of the time periods of $A$ and $B$ is

Three point masses,each of mass $m$,are kept at the corners of an equilateral triangle of side $L$. The system rotates about the center of the triangle. The period of rotation $T$ is directly proportional to:

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
$Assertion$ $(A)$: The angular speed of the moon in its orbit about the earth is more than the angular speed of the earth in its orbit about the sun.
$Reason$ $(R)$: The moon takes less time to move around the earth than the time taken by the earth to move around the sun.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

$Assertion$ : The Earth is slowing down and as a result the Moon is coming nearer to it.
$Reason$ : The angular momentum of the Earth-Moon system is not conserved.
