A rocket is fired‘vertically’ from the surface of mars with a speed of 2km s–1. If 20% of its initial energy is lost due to Martianatmospheric resistance, how far will the rocket go from the surfaceof mars before returning to it? Mass of mars = 6.4× 1023 kg;radius of mars = 3395 km; G = 6.67× 10-11 N m2kg–2.
