At what height from the surface of earth the gravitation potential and the value of g are -5.4xx10^7J*kg^(-1) and 6 m*s^(-2) respectively ? Take the radius of earth as 6400 km.

Gravitational acceleration on the surface of a planet is (sqrt(6)//11) g, where g is the gravitational acceleration on the surface of the earth. The average mass density of the planet is 2/3 times that of the earth. If the escape speed on the surface of the earth is taken to be 11 km*s^(-1) , the escape speed on the surface of the planet in km*s^(-1) will be
