A particle of mass
is projected with a velocity
from the surface of the earth. (Here,
escape velocity) The maximum height above the surface reached by the particle is [NEET 2021]
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsD
Given, initial energy at the time of projection

Final energy at the maximum height
from the surface of the earth

final velocity is zero at height
from the surface of the earth]

Using the law of conservation of energy,
initial energy at the time of projection = final energy at the maximum height
from the surface of the earth

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get
