List of top Physics Questions on Gravitational potential energy asked in NEET (UG)

The amount of work done to raise a mass ‘m’ from the surface of the Earth to a height equal to the radius of the Earth ‘R’, will be: ____.

A body weighs 48 N on the surface of the earth. The gravitational force experienced by the body due to the earth at a height equal to one-third the radius of the earth from its surface is:

A thin diamagnetic rod is placed vertically between the poles of an electromagnet. When the current in the electromagnet is switched on, then the diamagnetic rod is pushed up, out of the horizontal magnetic field. Hence the rod gains gravitational potential energy. The work required to do this comes from

Infinite number of bodies, each of mass 2 kg are situated on x-axis at distance 1 m, 2 m, 4 m, 8 m respectively, from the origin. The resulting gravitational potential due to this system at the origin will be

A body of mass w taken from the earth's surface to the height equal to twice the radius (R) of the earth. The change in potential energy of body will be

Two pith balls carrying equal charges are suspended from a common point by strings of equal length, the equilibrium separation between them is 7. Now the strings are rigidly clamped at half the height. The equilibrium separation between the balls now become
