A body is projected vertically upwards from the surface of a planet of radius \(R\) with a velocity equal to half the escape velocity of that planet. Then, the maximum height attained by the body is
- A \(\frac{R}{3}\)
- B \(\frac{R}{2}\)
- C \(\frac{R}{4}\)
- D \(\frac{R}{5}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\frac{R}{3}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
If a body is projected vertically upwards with a velocity of \(v\) from the surface of planet, then maximum height attained by the body is \(h=\frac{v^2 R}{2 g R-v^2}\) ...(i) But given that,…
