    The escape velocity of a sphere of mass m from Earth having mass M and radius R is given by

    A)  \[\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}\]                 

    B)  \[\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}}\]

    C)  \[\sqrt{\frac{2GmM}{R}}\]              

    D)  \[\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\frac{1}{2}m{{v}^{2}}-\frac{GmM}{R}=0\] Hence,    \[v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}\]
