The minimum velocity required for an object to escape Earth’s gravitational pull is obtained from the solution of the equation ∫v dv = −GM∫ 1/y2 dy where v is the velocity of the object projected from Earth, y is the distance from the center of Earth, G is the gravitational constant, and M is the mass of Earth. Show that v and y are related by the equation as attached. where v0 is the initial velocity of the object and R is the radius of Earth.
