A planet having mass $$9 \mathrm{Me}$$ and radius $$4 \mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{e}}$$, where $$\mathrm{Me}$$ and $$\mathrm{Re}$$ are mass and radius of earth respectively, has escape velocity in $$\mathrm{km} / \mathrm{s}$$ given by:
(Given escape velocity on earth $$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{e}}=11.2 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$$ )
The ratio of escape velocity of a planet to the escape velocity of earth will be:-
Given: Mass of the planet is 16 times mass of earth and radius of the planet is 4 times the radius of earth.
Two satellites $$\mathrm{A}$$ and $$\mathrm{B}$$ move round the earth in the same orbit. The mass of $$\mathrm{A}$$ is twice the mass of $$\mathrm{B}$$. The quantity which is same for the two satellites will be
A space ship of mass $$2 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{~kg}$$ is launched into a circular orbit close to the earth surface. The additional velocity to be imparted to the space ship in the orbit to overcome the gravitational pull will be (if $$g=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$$ and radius of earth $$=6400 \mathrm{~km}$$ ):
