A body is suspended from a spring balance
kept in a satellite. The reading of the spring
balance is W1 when the satellite goes in
an orbit of radius R and W2 when it goes
in an orbit of radius 2R. Which of the
following is correct?
A W1 = W2
B W1 < W2
C W1 > W2
D W1 ≠ W2
w1 should be greater than w2 because here they are increasing R so w2 should be smaller
Ans 1:
Class : Class 9
w1 should be greater than w2 because they are increasing R(distance) SO it should be Option C
