Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A :$ The escape velocities of planet $A$ and $B$ are same. But $A$ and $B$ are of unequal mass.
Reason $R :$ The product of their mass and radius must be same,$M_{1}R_{1} = M_{2}R_{2}$.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

The ratio of the kinetic energy required to be given to a satellite to escape from the Earth's surface to the kinetic energy required to be given to the same satellite to revolve around the Earth in an orbit just above the Earth's surface is ...........

Gravitational acceleration on the surface of a planet is $\frac{\sqrt{6}}{11}g$,where $g$ is the gravitational acceleration on the surface of the earth. The average mass density of the planet is $\frac{2}{3}$ times that of the earth. If the escape speed on the surface of the earth is taken to be $11 \ km/s$,the escape speed on the surface of the planet in $km/s$ will be:

The mass of the Earth is $81$ times that of the Moon and the radius of the Earth is $3.5$ times that of the Moon. The ratio of the escape velocity on the surface of the Earth to that on the surface of the Moon will be:

The escape velocity from the surface of Earth of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is $V_{e}$. The escape velocity from the surface of a planet whose mass and radius are $3$ times that of the Earth will be:
