    If the value of \[g\] on a planet is \[8\,m/{{s}^{2}}\] and its radius is 1000 km, then find the value of escape velocity on that planet:

    A)  1.41 km/s          

    B)         2.82 km/s

    C)  4km/s                 

    D)         8 km/s

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Escape velocity \[{{\upsilon }_{e}}=\sqrt{2gR},g=8m/{{s}^{2}}\] \[=0.008km/{{s}^{2}}\] \[=\sqrt{2\times 0.008\times 1000}\] \[=4km/s\]
