Gas escapes from the surface of a planet because it acquires an escape velocity. The escape velocity will depend on which of the following factors :
$I.$ Mass of the planet
$II.$ Mass of the particle escaping
$III.$ Temperature of the planet
$IV.$ Radius of the planet
Select the correct answer from the codes given below :

  • A
    $I$ and $II$
  • B
    $II$ and $IV$
  • C
    $I$ and $IV$

$A$ particle of mass $m$ is thrown upwards from the surface of the earth with a velocity $u$. The mass and the radius of the earth are $M$ and $R$, respectively. $G$ is the gravitational constant and $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth. The minimum value of $u$ so that the particle does not return back to earth is:

View Solution

$A$ projectile is projected with velocity $k{v_e}$ in the vertically upward direction from the ground into space. (${v_e}$ is the escape velocity and $k < 1$). If air resistance is considered to be negligible,then the maximum height from the center of the Earth to which it can go will be: ($R$ = radius of Earth)
