A body is projected vertically upwards from the surface of a planet of radius R with a velocity equal to half the escape velocity for that planet. The maximum height attained by the body is
 
Options:
A .  R3
B .  R2
C .  R4
D .  R5
Answer: Option A
:
A
If body is projected with velocity v v<ve then height up to which it will rise, h=Rv2ev21
v=ve2(given)h=R(veve2)21=R41=R3
