A planet having mass \(9\,Me\) and radius \(4 R _e\), where Me and \(\operatorname{Re}\) are mass and radius of earth respectively, has escape velocity in \(km / s\) given by:(Given escape velocity on earth \(\left.V_e=11.2 \times 10^3\,m / s \right)\)
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(16.8\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(V_p=\sqrt{\frac{2 G_p}{R_p}} V_E=\sqrt{\frac{2 GM _E}{R_E}}\)
\(\frac{V_P}{V_E}=\frac{\sqrt{\frac{2 G_P}{R_p}}}{\sqrt{\frac{2 G_E}{R_E}}}=\sqrt{\frac{R_E}{R_P} \times \frac{M_P}{M_E}}\)
\(V_P=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4} \times 9} \times V_E=\frac{3}{2} V_E\)
\(V _{ P }=\frac{3}{2} \times 11.2\,km / sec\)
\(=16.8\,km / sec\)

- A piston of mass \(M\) is hung from a massless spring whose restoring force law goes as \(\mathrm{F}=-\mathrm{kx}^3\), where k is the spring constant of appropriate dimension. The piston separates the vertical chamber into two parts, where the bottom part is filled with ' \(n\) ' moles of an ideal gas.
