Choose an option
Show full solutionCorrect option: C
Correct answer
C
Step-by-step explanation
We know, Escape velocity,
So the escape velocity is independent of the angle at which the body is projected, hence it will remain same as 11 km/s.
So the escape velocity is independent of the angle at which the body is projected, hence it will remain same as 11 km/s.
