Physics-Gravitational Potential Energy
NEET Physics Gravitational Potential Energy MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-fact-Hard-Class 11
What is the gravitational potential energy associated with two particles separated by a distance r, given that V is taken to be zero at r → ∞?
A
V = -G(m1m2)/r
B
V = G(m1m2)/r
C
V = -G(m1m2)r
D
V = G(m1m2)r
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The gravitational potential energy associated with two particles separated by a distance r is given by the formula V = -G(m1m2)/r, where V is taken to be zero at infinity, as mentioned in the NCERT context.
