Calcualte the third cosmic veocity i.e the velocity relative to the Earth 'a surface to drive a body out of the Solar system in terms `m_(e)` (mass of the earth) ,`M_(s)` (mass of the sun) R ( radius of the Earth ),and d(the earth sun distance)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`sqrt(G[(sqrt(2)-1)^(2)(m_(s))/(d)+(2m_(e))/(R)])`
