Question
The escape velocity for a body projected vertically upwards from the surface of earth is 11 km/s. If body is projected at an angle of 45o with the vertical will the escape velocity will be
Options
A.22km/s
B.11km/s
C.
km/s
km/sD.11√2 km/s
Solution
Since escape velocity ve = √2gRe is independent of angle of projection, so it will not change.
