    8. Where does a body weight more; at the surface of the earth or in the mine? 1

    9. A uniform ring of mass m and radius a is placed directly above a uniform sphere of
    mass M and of equal radius. The centre of the ring is at a distance 33 a from the centre
    of the sphere. Find the gravitational force exerted by the sphere on the ring. 2

    10. State and briefly explain the law of areas. 2

    earth 6400 km. 2

    12. Let the speed of the planet at perihelion P in fig be vp and Sun planet distance SP be

    rp. Relate (rp, vp) to the corresponding quantities at the aphelion (rA, vA). Will the

    planet take equal times to traverse BAC and CPB? 3

    13. A satellite orbits the earth at a height of 400 km above the surface. How much energy

    speed of 1.2 rev. per second. (Extremely compact stars of this kind are known as
    neutron stars. Certain stellar objects called pulsars belong to this category). Will an
    object placed on its equator remain stuck to its surface due to gravity? (Mass of the

    sun = 2 1030 kg). 3
