Explanation:
Given

Rewrite using scientific notation
The format of a number in scientific notation is
Where
So the given parameter can be rewritten as
Express as a power of 10
Hence, the equivalent of the mass of the sun in scientific notation is:
Here as we know that there is no loss of energy
so we can say that maximum kinetic energy will become gravitational potential energy at its maximum height
So here we have
here we have
v = 20 m/s
m = 8000 kg
now from above equation we have
so maximum height is 20.4 m
