Question:medium
The escape velocity from the surface of the earth is \( v_{e} \).
The escape velocity from the surface of a planet whose mass and radius are 3 times those of the earth will be:
The escape velocity from the surface of the earth is \( v_{e} \).
The escape velocity from the surface of a planet whose mass and radius are 3 times those of the earth will be:
Show Hint
Escape velocity depends on the ratio of Mass to Radius ($M/R$).

- A curve is given between the potential energy \(U\) of a particle and its position on the \(x\)-axis as shown. Given: \[ \tan\theta_1 = 1,\qquad \tan\theta_2 = 3,\qquad \tan\theta_3 = -\frac{1}{2} \] If \(F_{AB}\) is the force acting on the particle during motion from \(A\) to \(B\), similarly \(F_{BC}\), \(F_{CD}\) and \(F_{DE}\) are the forces during \(B\) to \(C\), \(C\) to \(D\) and \(D\) to \(E\) respectively, arrange the magnitudes of these forces in decreasing order.

- Given below are two statements:
Statement I: An object moves from position \( \vec{r}_1 \) to position \( \vec{r}_2 \) under a conservative force field \( \vec{F} \). The work done by the force is \[ W = -\int_{\vec{r}_1}^{\vec{r}_2} \vec{F} \cdot d\vec{r}. \]
Statement II: Any object moving from one location to another location can follow infinite number of paths. Therefore, the amount of work done by the object changes with the path it follows for a conservative force.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:- JEE Main - 2026
