In the graph shown, the PE of earth-satellite system is shown
by solid line as a function of distance r (the separation
between earth's centre and satellite). The total energy of two
objects which may or may not be bounded to earth are shown
in figure by dotted lines.

If both the object have same PE curve as shown in figure, then
  1. for object having total energy E2 all values of r are possible
  2. for object having total energy E2 values of r < r0 are only possible
  3. for object having total energy E1 all values of r are possible
  4. none of these

Answer

(A) for object having total energy E 2 all values of r are possible
