$A$ projectile is thrown straight upward from the Earth's surface with an initial speed $v = \alpha v_E$,where $\alpha$ is a constant and $v_E$ is the escape speed. The projectile travels up to a height $h = 800 \ km$ from the Earth's surface before it comes to rest. The value of the constant $\alpha$ is (Radius of the Earth $R = 6400 \ km$):

Two uniform solid spheres of equal radii $R$,but mass $M$ and $4M$ have a centre-to-centre separation $6R$,as shown in the figure. The two spheres are held fixed. $A$ projectile of mass $m$ is projected from the surface of the sphere of mass $M$ directly towards the centre of the second sphere. Obtain an expression for the minimum speed $v$ of the projectile so that it reaches the surface of the second sphere.

The escape velocity from a planet is $V_e$. $A$ tunnel is dug along the diameter of the planet and a small body is dropped into it. The speed of the body at the centre of the planet will be

With what velocity should a particle be projected so that its height becomes equal to the radius of the Earth?

An object is propelled vertically to a maximum height of $4 R$ from the surface of a planet of radius $R$ and mass $M$. The speed of the object when it returns to the surface of the planet is

$A$ body is projected vertically upwards from the Earth's surface of radius $R$ with a velocity equal to $\frac{1}{3}$ of the escape velocity. The maximum height reached by the body is
