List of top Physics Questions on Escape Speed asked in MHT CET

The escape velocity of a satellite from the surface of earth does NOT depend on

A body is projected vertically from Earth's surface with \( \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{\text{rd}} \) of the escape velocity. The maximum height reached by the body is (\( R \) = radius of Earth).

The escape velocity of a satellite from the surface of earth does NOT depend on

The radius of a planet is twice the radius of the earth. Both have almost equal average mass densities. If $V_P$ and $V_E$ are escape velocities of the planet and the earth respectively, then

A particle of mass 'm' is kept at rest at a height \( 3R \) from the surface of earth, where 'R' is radius of earth and 'M' is the mass of earth. The minimum speed with which it should be projected, so that it does not return back is ( \( g = \) acceleration due to gravity on the earth's surface)

A body is projected from earth's surface with thrice the escape velocity from the surface of the earth. What will be its velocity when it will escape the gravitational pull?
