Difference between Binding energy of satellite and Escape energy.

1.	Difference between Binding energy of satellite and Escape energy.
Answer» Thanks<br>Binding Energy of a satellite: The minimum amount of energy required for a satellite to escape from earth\'s gravitational influence is called as Binding Energy of a satellite.Binding Energy = GMm/2rWhere, G is Gravitational ConstantM is mass of earthm is mass of satelliter is radius of orbit i.e. Radius of earth + height at which staellite is orbiting the earth.Escape Energy: The minimum amount of energy with which a body should be projected from the surface of the earth, so that it escapes from the earth\'s gravitational field, is called the Escape Energy of the body.The velocity with which the body travels is known as Escape Velocity. It is given byV = √2gR)Where, g is acceleration due to gravityR is radius of Earth.
