You are on the surface of a planet with no atmosphere. This planet has mass 9.8 x 1023 kg and radius 1.3 x 105 m. You throw a ball (mass irrelevant) straight upward with a velocity of 12.8 x 103 m/s. At the moment when the speed is now 4.1 x 103 m/s, what is the elevation of the ball above the surface, in units of 105 m. Use G = 6.7 x 10-11 N m2/kg2(Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 14.3225)

Question

You are on the surface of a planet with no atmosphere. This planet has mass 9.8 x 10²³ kg and radius 1.3 x 10⁵ m. You throw a ball (mass irrelevant) straight upward with a velocity of 12.8 x 10³ m/s. At the moment when the speed is now 4.1 x 10³ m/s, what is the elevation of the ball above the surface, in units of 10⁵ m. Use G = 6.7 x 10^-11 N m²/kg²

(Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 14.3225)
