A body is projected up with a velocity equal to \(\frac{3}{4}\) th of the escape velocity from the surface of the earth. The height it reaches is (Radius of the earth \(=R\) )

  1. A \(\frac{10 R}{9}\)
  2. B \(\frac{9 R}{7}\)
  3. C \(\frac{9 R}{8}\)
  4. D \(\frac{10 R}{3}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{9 R}{7}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Velocity of projection \(v=\frac{3}{4} v_e\) where, \(v_e=\) escape velocity \(=\sqrt{2 g R}\) Maximum height attained by the body…
