7.Gravitation
normal
Two particles of equal mass go round a circle of radius $R$ under the action of their mutual gravitational attraction. The speed of each particle is
A
$v = \frac{1}{{2R}}\,\sqrt {\frac{1}{{Gm}}} $
B
$v = \sqrt {\frac{{Gm}}{{2R}}} $
C
$v = \frac{1}{2}\,\sqrt {\frac{{Gm}}{R}} $
D
$v = \sqrt {\frac{{4Gm}}{{R}}} $
Solution

$\frac{m v^{2}}{R}=\frac{G m \times m}{(2 R)^{2}}$
$\Rightarrow \quad \mathrm{v}=\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{Gm}}{\mathrm{R}}}$
