The escape velocity of a body on the earth's surface is \(v_e\).A body is thrown up with a speed \(\sqrt{5} v_e\).Assuming that the sun and planets do not influence the motion of the body, velocity of the body at infinite distance, is :
- A \(0\)
- B \(v_e\)
- C \(\sqrt{2} v_e\)
- D \(2v_e\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(2v_e\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Since velocity of projection \((v)\) is greater than the escape velocity \(\left(v_e\right)\), therefore at infinite distance the body moves with a velocity…
