    The escape velocity for the earth is \[{{\operatorname{V}}_{e}}\]The escape velocity for a planet whose radius is\[\frac{{{1}^{th}}}{4}\] the radius of earth and mass is half that of the earth is:

    A) \[\frac{{{\operatorname{V}}_{e}}}{\sqrt{2}}\]                           

    B) \[\sqrt{2}{{\operatorname{V}}_{e}}\]   

    C) \[2{{\operatorname{V}}_{e}}\]                          

    D) \[\frac{{{\operatorname{V}}_{e}}}{2}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[\operatorname{Escape} velocity=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}}\] \[{{\operatorname{V}}_{e}}=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}}\]                          ?.(1) \[u=\sqrt{\frac{G{{M}_{P}}}{{{R}_{P}}}}\] \[{{\operatorname{M}}_{P}}=\frac{M}{2},\,\,{{R}_{P}}=\frac{R}{4}\] \[u=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{2\times R}\times 4}\] \[\operatorname{u}=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}\]                                ?.(2) By (1) and (2) \[\operatorname{u}=\sqrt{2}\,\,{{V}_{e}}\]
