Its speed reading would increase to 10 m/s every second
Answer:
(a) The initial speed required is 13116 m/s
(b) The escape speed is 10394 m/s
This problem involves the application of newtons laws of gravitation. The forces in action here are conservative and as a result mechanical energy is conserved.
The full calculation can be found in the attachment below.
Explanation:
In both parts (a) and (b) the energy conservation equation were used. Assumption was made that when the object is very far from the planet the distance from the planet's center approaches infinity and the gravitational potential energy approaches zero.
The calculation can be found below.
Explanation:
Kepler’s third law states that for all objects orbiting a given body, the cube of the semimajor axis (A) is proportional to the square of the orbital period (P).
For each of our planets orbiting the Sun, the relationship between the orbital period and semimajor axis can be represented by the equation as:

k is constant of proportionality
It is required to solve the above equation for k
