Q65 / 68 · NEST (NISER) 2023 (Session 1) · Physics
A point object P of mass $m$ and charge $q$ is placed at a distance $r$ from a stationary object $Q$ of mass $M$ and charge $-q$. Let $T_g$ be the time for $P$ to reach $Q$ if it is moving only under gravitational attraction. Similarly, let $T_e$ be the time for P to reach $Q$ if it is moving only under electrostatic attraction. Then,
- Correct answerA$T_g$ depends on $M$ but not on $m$.
- Correct answerB$T_e$ depends on $m$ but not on $M$.
- C$T_g^2$ is directly proportional to $G$.
- Correct answerD$T_e^2$ is directly proportional to $\epsilon_0$.
Hence, the correct answer is options: 'A', 'B', 'D'.
