$A$ body is released from a height equal to the radius $(R)$ of the earth. The velocity of the body when it strikes the surface of the earth will be: (Given $g$ = acceleration due to gravity on the earth.)

Suppose two planets (spherical in shape) of radii $R$ and $2R$,but mass $M$ and $9M$ respectively have a centre-to-centre separation $8R$ as shown in the figure. $A$ satellite of mass $m$ is projected from the surface of the planet of mass $M$ directly towards the centre of the second planet. The minimum speed $v$ required for the satellite to reach the surface of the second planet is $\sqrt{\frac{a}{7} \frac{GM}{R}}$,then the value of $a$ is $....$
[Given: The two planets are fixed in their position]

An asteroid is moving directly towards the centre of the Earth. When at a distance of $10 R$ ($R$ is the radius of the Earth) from the Earth's centre,it has a speed of $12 \; km/s$. Neglecting the effect of Earth's atmosphere,what will be the speed of the asteroid when it hits the surface of the Earth? (Escape velocity from the Earth is $11.2 \; km/s$). Give your answer to the nearest integer in $km/s$.

$A$ rocket of mass $M$ is launched vertically from the surface of the earth with an initial speed $V$. Assuming the radius of the earth to be $R$ and negligible air resistance,the maximum height attained by the rocket above the surface of the earth 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

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.
