Question

Escape velocity of a body is i
ndependent of
1.Mass of earth 2.mass of body

Answer 1

Answer:

Escape velocity is independent of the mass of the body.

Explanation:

Escape velocity = √2GM/R

where,

G —> Universal gravitational constant

M —> Mass of the planet

R—> Radius of the planet

Answer 2

⏭ QuesTion:

✏ Escape velocity of a body independent of....

(A) Mass of Earth

(B) Mass of Body ✔

⏭ ExplaNation:

• Escape velocity:

✏ Escape velocity is the minimum speed needed for a object to escape from the gravitational influence of planet to achieve an infinite distance from it.

✏ Formula of escape velocity is given by

$\orange{ \bigstar} \: \underline{ \boxed{ \bold{ \sf{ \purple{v{ \tiny{e}} = \sqrt{ \frac{2GM}{R}}}}}}} \: \orange{ \bigstar}$

➡ Terms indication:

✏ Ve denites escape velocity of planet

✏ G denotes Gravitational constant

✏ M denotes mass of planet

✏ R denotes radius of planet

✏ As per formula, it is clear that escape velocity is independent of mass of body.
