NEET 2018, Physics Q42: Variation In Acceleration Due To Gravity

NEET2018Paper 2018Physics
Q.

If the mass of the Sun were ten times smaller and the universal gravitational constant were ten times larger in magnitude, which of the following is not correct?

  1. A

    Raindrops will fall faster

  2. B

    Time period of a simple pendulum on the Earth would decrease

  3. C

    Walking on the ground would become more difficult

  4. D

    ‘g’ on the Earth will not change

Solution

If Universal Gravitational constant becomes ten times, then G' = 10 G

So, acceleration due to gravity increases.
