Q. No.A particle is released from a height of \(S\) above the surface of the earth. At a certain height, its kinetic energy is three times its potential energy. The distance from the earth's surface and the speed of the particle at that instant are respectively:
| 1. | \(\frac{S}{2},\frac{\sqrt{3gS}}{2}\) | 2. | \(\frac{S}{4}, \sqrt{\frac{3gS}{2}}\) |
| 3. | \(\frac{S}{4},\frac{3gS}{2}\) | 4. | \(\frac{S}{4},\frac{\sqrt{3gS}}{3}\) |

Assuming that the gravitational potential energy of an object at infinity is zero, the change in potential energy (final - initial) of an object of mass \(m\) when taken to a height \(h\) from the surface of the earth (of radius \(R\) and mass \(M\)), is given by:
| 1. | \(-\frac{GMm}{R+h}\) | 2. | \(\frac{GMmh}{R(R+h)}\) |
| 3. | \(mgh\) | 4. | \(\frac{GMm}{R+h}\) |
