Questions
Assuming that the gravitational potential energy of an object at infinity is zero, the change in potential energy (final – initial) of an object of mass m, when taken to a height h from the surface of earth (of radius R), is given by,
detailed solution
Correct option is C
(P.E)A=-GMmR(P.E)B=-GMmR+h∴ ΔU=(P.E)B-(P.E)A=- GMm R+h+ GMm R= GMmh (R)(R+h)Talk to our academic expert!
