Detailed Solution
By using conservation of mechanical energy−GMm(R+R)+12m(fv)2=0+0Where v=2GMR⇒f=12
The earth is assumed to be a sphere of radius R. A platform is arranged at a height R from the surface of the earth. The escape velocity of a body from this platform is fv, where v is the escape velocity from the surface of the earth. The value of f is :
