Question 246: Gravitation

Question

The escape velocity of a body depends upon mass as

Accepted Answer

Escape velocity,
$${v_e} = \sqrt {2gR}  = \sqrt {{{2GM} \over R}}  \Rightarrow {V_e}\, \propto \,{m^0}$$
Where $$M,R$$ are the mass and radius of the planet respectively. In this expression the mass of the body $$(m)$$ is not present. The escape velocity is independent of the mass m or it depends on m
0
.

Answer

$${m^0}$$
