A launching vehicle carrying an artificial satellite of mass \(m\) is set for launch on the surface of the earth of mass \(M\) and radius \(R.\) If the satellite is intended to move in a circular orbit of radius \(7R,\) the minimum energy required to be spent by the launching vehicle on the satellite is:
(Gravitational constant= \(G\))
1. \(\frac{GMm}{R}\)
2. \(-\frac{13GMm}{14R}\)
3. \(\frac{GMm}{7R}\)
4. \(-\frac{GMm}{14R}\)

The sound waves after being converted into electrical waves are not transmitted as such because:
 
1. they travel with the speed of sound.
2. the frequency is not constant.
3. they can, heavily absorbed by the atmosphere.
4. the height of antenna has to be increased several times.
