The kinetic energy needed to project a body of mass `m` from the earth surface (radius R) to infinity isA. `(mgR)/(2)`B. `2mgR`C. `mgR`D. `(mgR)/(2)` |
Answer» Correct Answer - C The kinetic energy needed to project a body of mass m from the earth surface to infinity is given by `KE=(1)/(2)mv_(e)^(2)=(1)/(2)m 2Rg` `(because "Escape velociy", v_(e)=sqrt(2Rg)rArrv_(e)^(2)=2Rg)` `rArr KE = mRg` |
