The escape velocity of a bullet from the surface of planet Y is 1759.0 m/s. CALCULATE the escape velocity from the surface of the planet X if the mass of planet X is 1.59 times that of Y, and its radius is 0.895 times the radius of Y.
Use gravitational PE
At surface of Planet Y
PEy = -mGMy/Ry
KE.escape = 1/2m Vy^2
KE = PE.infinity - PEy
1/2 mV.y^2 = mGMy/Ry
Vy = ?(2GMy/Ry)
At surface of Planet X
PEx = -GMx/Rx
Vx = ? (2GMx/Rx)
Vx/Vy = ? (2GMx/Rx) / ?(2GMy/Ry)
Vx= Vy ? (Mx/My *Ry/Rx)
Vx = Vy ? (1.59/.895)
Vx = 1759* ? (1.59/.895)
Vx = 2345 m/s

What is the escape velocity from the surface of a planet, with a mass m = 6.39 times 10^23 kg, and a radius r = 3390. Km? (be careful of the units, and use G = 6.67 times 10^-11 N m^2/kg^2) 1550 m/s 2340 m/s 4620 m/s 4970 m/s 5010 m/s
The escape speed from Planet X is 20000 m/s . Planet Y has the same radius as Planet X but is twice as dense. What is the escape speed from Planet Y?
please explain the answer 4) The escape velocity on the surface of a planet is given by 2GM R where G = 6.67 x 10-11m2 kg-1 3-2 is Newton's gravitational constant, M is the mass of the planet, and R is the radius of the planet. The escape velocity is the velocity you have to thrown an object so that it does not come back down (better hit the gym!). Write v in terms of average mass density p. Recall...
Please answer the entire question step by step 4) The escape velocity on the surface of a planet is given by 2GM V= R 1 S where G = 6.67 x 10-11 m² kg :-2 is Newton's gravitational constant, M is the mass of the planet, and R is the radius of the planet. The escape velocity is the velocity you have to thrown an object so that it does not come back down (better hit the gym!). Write v...

The escape velocity for the planet with a mass of 8.00 x 10^25 kg and a radius of 24,500 km is ____ m/s.
If the escape velocity of the Earth is approximately 12 km/s. What is the escape velocity for a planet whose radius is 4 times, and whose mass is 100 times that of Earth? a. 1.2 km/s b. 12 km/s c. 60 km/s d. 300 km/s e. 600 km/s
The escape speed from a distant planet is 45 km/s. If the acceleration of gravity on the planet surface is 14.0 m/s2, what is the radius of the planet?
The escape velocity is a function of a planet’s radius and mass. We also know that the mass of an object is M = ρV where ρ is the mass density and V is the volume. The volume of a sphere is V = (4/3) π R3 a.) combine the formula for the escape velocity with the additional relationships given above and find an expression for the escape velocity as a function of the mass density and radius of a...
