Consider a uniform spherical planet of mass M and radius R Two parallel tunnels are dug perpendicular distance symmetrically from centre A particle is to be thrown from the starting 3R 5 one tunnel such that it enters in another tunnel without making collision with tunnel wall and continue its motion as shown in figure Tunnels are friction less and particle just fits inside the tunnel Conside the planet to be at rest Choose the correct options R 3R 3R 5 5 A Speed with which the particle is to be thrown at starting of one tunnel is B Minimum speed of particle during entire motion is GM 9R 4R C Maximum height achieved by the particle during subsequent motion is 5 GM R
