Q1PhysicsUnit 6: Gravitation
The gravitational potential difference between the surface of a planet and a point 20m20 m above it is 16J/kg.16 J / k g . Then the work done in moving a 2 kg mass by 8m8 m on a slope 60 degree from the horizontal, is:
Q2PhysicsUnit 6: Gravitation
The height at which the value of acceleration due to gravity becomes 50%50 \% of that at the surface of the earth. (radius of the earth =6400km=\mathbf{6 4 0 0 k m} ) is
Q3PhysicsUnit 6: Gravitation
If the mass of the body on the surface of the earth is 50kg,50 k g, its mass at the centre of the earth is:
Q4PhysicsUnit 6: Gravitation
Gravitational constant is experimentally measured using a
Q5PhysicsUnit 6: Gravitation
The distance between the sun and the earth is
Q6PhysicsUnit 6: Gravitation
Suppose that the acceleration of a free fall at the surface of a distant planet was found to be equal to that at the surface of the earth. If the diameter of the planet were twice the diameter of the earth, then the ratio of mean density of the planet to that of the earth would be:
Q7PhysicsUnit 6: Gravitation
Assertion Newton's law of gravitation resembles Coulomb's law of electrical forces. Reason Coulomb's law has the product of two charges in place of the product of the masses, and the electrostatic constant in place of the gravitational constant.
Q8PhysicsUnit 6: Gravitation
Let A^{\prime} \boldsymbol{A}^{\prime} be the area swept by the radial vector connecting the earth and the sun in April and May months. Then, find the area swept by the same radial vector connecting the earth and the sun in November and December months interms of A\boldsymbol{A}

Frequently asked questions

What makes a Gravitation question "important" for JEE?

Important questions test core concepts that appear frequently across JEE Main and Advanced papers — definitions, standard formulas, and classic problem types.

Which subtopics in Gravitation are high-weightage?

Key areas include The universal law of gravitation, Acceleration due to gravity and its variation with altitude and depth, Kepler's law of planetary motion, Gravitational potential energy, gravitational potential, and more. Prioritise these before moving to edge cases.

How many important questions should I revise?

Revise 30–50 important MCQs per unit in the last month before JEE. Focus on questions you got wrong at least once.

Can I practise only important questions on Goodmarks?

Pro users can filter by unit and subtopic to target high-yield areas. Free users can attempt sample questions on this page.
