     The escape velocity from earth is \[{{v}_{es}}.\] A body is projected with velocity \[2{{v}_{es}}\]with what constant velocity will it move in the inter planetary space                                [DCE 2002]

    A)             \[{{v}_{es}}\]

    B)             \[3{{v}_{es}}\]

    C)             \[\sqrt{3}{{v}_{es}}\]           

    D)             \[\sqrt{5}{{v}_{es}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Velocity of body in inter planetary space \[v'=\sqrt{{{v}^{2}}-v_{es}^{2}}\] where \[{{v}_{es}}=\] escape velocity and v = velocity of projection \          \[v'=\sqrt{{{(2{{v}_{es}})}^{2}}-v_{es}^{2}}=\sqrt{3v_{es}^{2}}\]Þ \[v'=\sqrt{3}\ {{v}_{es}}\]
