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

An object is thrown vertically upwards from the surface of the earth with a velocity $x$ times the escape velocity on the earth $(x < 1)$. The maximum height to which it rises from the center of the earth is (radius of earth is $R$):

$A$ body is projected vertically upwards from the Earth's surface. If the velocity of projection is $\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)$ of the escape velocity,then the height up to which the body rises is $(R = \text{radius of Earth})$

If the radius and acceleration due to gravity both are doubled,the escape velocity of the Earth will become ......... $km/s$.
