A tunnel is dug inside the earth across one of its diameters. Radius of earth is `R` and its mass is `M`. A particle is projected inside the tunnel with velocity `sqrt((2GM)/(R))` from one of its ends then maximum velocity attained by the particle in the subsequent motion is (assuming tunnel to be frictionless)
