Two satellites A and B, having masses in the ratio 4 : 3, are revolving in circular orbits of radii 3r and 4r respectively around the earth. The ratio of total mechanical energy of A to B is
- 9 : 16
- 16 : 9
- 1 : 1
- 4 : 3
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The correct option is(B): 16 : 9.
\(=\frac{U_A}{U_B}=\frac{mA}{m_B}×\frac{r_B}{r_A}\)
\(=\frac{4}{3}×\frac{4}{3}\)
\(\frac{16}{9}\)

Gravitational Potential Energy
The work which a body needs to do, against the force of gravity, in order to bring that body into a particular space is called Gravitational potential energy. The stored is the result of the gravitational attraction of the Earth for the object. The GPE of the massive ball of a demolition machine depends on two variables - the mass of the ball and the height to which it is raised. There is a direct relation between GPE and the mass of an object. More massive objects have greater GPE. Also, there is a direct relation between GPE and the height of an object. The higher that an object is elevated, the greater the GPE. The relationship is expressed in the following manner:
PEgrav = mass x g x height
PEgrav = m x g x h
Where,
m is the mass of the object,
h is the height of the object
g is the gravitational field strength (9.8 N/kg on Earth) - sometimes referred to as the acceleration of gravity.
