The mass of a planet is half that of the Earth and the radius of the planet is one-fourth that of the Earth. If we plan to send an artificial satellite from the planet,the escape velocity will be (escape velocity on Earth $v_e = 11 \ km \ s^{-1}$): (in $km \ s^{-1}$)

$A$ body of mass $m$ is thrown vertically upward with speed $\sqrt{3} v_e$, where $v_e$ is the escape velocity of a body from the Earth's surface. The final velocity of the body is

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

The masses and radii of the Earth and Moon are $M_1, R_1$ and $M_2, R_2$ respectively. Their centers are at a distance $d$ apart. The minimum velocity with which a particle of mass $m$ should be projected from a point midway between their centers so that it escapes to infinity is:
