The escape velocity for a body of mass `1kg` from the earth surface is `11.2kms^(-1)`. The escape velocity for a body of mass `100kg` would beA. `11.2xx10^(-2)kms^(-1)`B. `111kms^(-1)`C. `11.2kms^(-1)`D. `11.2xx10^(-2)kms^(-1)`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Escape velocity is independent of mass of the object. It depends only on the mass of the planet as.
`v=sqrt((2GM)/R)`
