Questions
The gravitational potential due to earth at infinite distance from it is zero. Let the gravitational potential at a point P be . Suppose, we arbitrarily assume the gravitational potential at infinity to be , then the gravitational potential at P will be
detailed solution
Correct option is B
According to the problem, as the potential at ∞ increases by +10Jkg−1, hence potential will increase by the same amount everywhere (potential gradient will remain constant). Hence, potential at point PP=10−5=+5Jkg−1Similar Questions
