A research satellite of mass $200 \,kg$ circles the earth in an orbit of average radius $3\,R/2$ where $ R$ is the radius of the earth. Assuming the gravitational pull on a mass of $1 \,kg$ on the earth’s surface to be $10 \,N$, the pull on the satellite will be ........ $N$. 
$Assertion$ : Two balls of different masses are thrown vertically upward with same speed. They will pass through their point of projection in the downward direction with the same speed.

$Reason$ : The maximum height and downward velocity attained at the point of projection are independent of the mass of the ball

If there are no heat losses, the heat released by the condensation of x gram of steam at 100°C into water at 100°C can be used to convert y gram of ice at 0°C into water at 100°C. Then the ratio y : x is nearly:
