The escape velocity of a body depends upon its mass as:

  • A
    $m^2$
  • B
    $m$
  • C
    $m^0$
  • D
    $m^{-1}$

The acceleration due to gravity on a planet is the same as that on Earth,and its radius is four times that of Earth. What will be the value of the escape velocity on that planet if it is $v_e$ on Earth?

The escape velocity for a planet whose mass is six times the mass of Earth and whose radius is twice the radius of Earth will be (where $V_{e}$ is the escape velocity from the Earth).

$A$ body is projected vertically from the Earth's surface of radius $R$ with a velocity equal to half the escape velocity. The maximum height reached by the body is

The angular velocity of rotation of a star (of mass $M$ and radius $R$) at which the matter starts to escape from its equator will be:

$A$ particle of mass $m$ is kept at rest at a height $3R$ from the surface of the Earth,where $R$ is the radius of the Earth and $M$ is the mass of the Earth. The minimum speed with which it should be projected upward so that it does not return back is ($g$ = acceleration due to gravity on the Earth's surface).
