If the satellite is stopped suddenly in its orbit which is at a distnace = radius of earth from earth’s surface and allowed to fall freely into the earth, the speed with which it hits the surface of earth will be -

An artificial satellite is moving in a circular orbit around the earth with a speed equal to half the magnitude of escape velocity from the earth. (i) Determine the height of the satellite above the earth's surface. (ii) If the satellite is stopped suddenly in its orbit and allowed to fall freely onto the earth, find the speed with which it hits the surface of the earth.
