Question:medium

A body is thrown vertically upwards from the surface of the earth with a velocity \(K\) times the orbital velocity of a satellite near the surface of the earth. If the maximum height reached by the body is 200% more than the radius of the earth, then the value of \(K^{2}\) is:

Show Hint

For gravitation problems involving maximum height, use conservation of mechanical energy instead of equations of motion.
