Question 7

Multiple Choice

Suppose the gravitational force of the Earth on a body was F=KMEmr3F = - \frac { K M _ { E } m } { r ^ { 3 } } .What escape velocity ve would a body need to escape the gravitational field of the Earth?


A) νe=KME2RE2\nu _ { e } = \sqrt { \frac { K M _ { E } } { 2 R _ { E } ^ { 2 } } } .
B) νe=KMERE2\nu _ { e } = \sqrt { \frac { K M _ { E } } { R _ { E } ^ { 2 } } } .
C) ve=KME2REv _ { e } = \sqrt { \frac { K M _ { E } } { 2 R _ { E } } } .
D) ve=KMEREv _ { e } = \sqrt { \frac { K M _ { E } } { R _ { E } } } .
E) νe=KME\nu _ { e } = \sqrt { K M _ { E } } .
