Question 1

An object is released from rest at a distance h above the surface of a planet (mass = M, radius = R<h). With what speed will the object strike the surface of the planet? Disregard any dissipative effects of the atmosphere of the planet.







Question 2

An object is released from rest when it is a height h above the surface of a planet of mass M and radius R. What is the speed of the object just before striking the surface of the planet? Neglect any air resistance. Let h = 4.0 × 106 m, R = 5.0 × 106 m, and M = 4.0 × 1024 kg.
