Lreblems For Practice
1. Asphere of mass 40 kg is being attracted by another
sphere of mass 80 kg with a force equal to 1/4 of a
milligram weight when their centres are 30 cm
apart. Calculate the value of G. .
(Ans. 6.88 x 107!! Nm?kg~)
2. The centres of two identical spheres are 1.0 m apart.
If the gravitational force between the spheres be
1.0 N, then what is the mass of each sphere ? °
(G= 6.67 x10" mokg-1s2),
(Ans. 1.225 x 10° kg)

H-atoms of a hydrogen molecule. Given
G=667x10"' Nm? kg, mass of the atom
7 x10-*” kg and distance between two H-atoms
- (Ans. 1.86 x 10“ Ny
4, Calculate the force of gravitation between two
bodies, each of mass 100 kg and 1 m apart on the
surface of the earth. Will the force of attraction be
different if the same bodies are taken on the moon,
their separation remaining constant ?
(Ans. 6.67 x 107 N, No)
5. An apple of mass 0.25 kg falls from a tree. What is
the acceleration of the apple towards the earth ?
Also calculate the acceleration of the earth towards
the apple. Mass of the earth = 5.983 x10" kg,
Radius of the earth =6.378x10°m and
G = 6.67 x10"! Nm? kg.
(Ans. 9.810 ms“, 4,099 x10" ms~2)
6. If the mass of the sun is 2 x 10 kg, the distance of
the earth from the sun is 1.5 x 10" m and period of
revolution of the earth around the sun is one year
(=365.3 days), calculate the value of gravitational
constant. (Ans. 6.69 x10" Nm?kg~*)
How far from earth must a body be along a line
towards the sun so that the sun’s gravitational pull
on it balances that of the earth. Distance between sun
and earth’s centre is 1.5 x 10!° km. Mass of sun is
3.24 x 10° times mass of earth.
N
(Ans, 2.63 x10” km),
