Solution

The correct options are
B Gravitational potential energy and electric potential energy
C Electric field and gravitational field
We have to find which pairs are analogous out of four options.
Since gravitational force is analogous to electrostatic force. Similarly gravitational potential energy =Gm1m2r is analogous to electric potential energy =kq1q2r
Similarly, electric field =kq1q2r2 is analogous to gravitational field =Gm1m2r2
K=14πε0, constant in coulomb's law analogous to G, constant in gravitational law.
m1 and m2 are mass analogous to q1, q2 charges.
