Miscellaneous Problems on Gravitation
PHXI08:GRAVITATION

359991 Assertion :
The ratio of inertial mass to gravitational mass is equal to one.
Reason :
The inertial mass and gravitational mass of a body are conceptually different.

1 Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.

4 Assertion is incorrect but reason is correct.
PHXI08:GRAVITATION

359992 How will you weigh of sun i.e., estimate its mass? You will need to know the period of one of its planets and the radius of the planetary orbit. The mean orbital radius of the earth around the sun is \(1.5 \times {10^8}\;km\). Then the mass of the sun is

1 \(5 \times {10^{30}}\;kg\)
2 \(4 \times {10^{30}}\;kg\)
3 \(3 \times {10^{30}}\;kg\)
4 \(2 \times {10^{30}}\;kg\)
PHXI08:GRAVITATION

359993 Assertion :
The length (i.e, duration) of the day is slowly increasing, due to rotational effect.
Reason :
The dominant effect causing a slowdown in the rotation of the earth is the gravitational pull of other planets in the solar system.
