5-3. In order to remove a particle from the surface of the Earth and transport it infinitely far away, the initial kinetic energy must equal the work required to move the particle from r = Re to r = © against the attractive gravitational force: = Mem 1. for err 2™ (1) where Me and Re are the mass and the radius of the Earth, respectively, and Vo is the initial velocity of the particle at r = Re. Solving (1), we have the expression for vp: “or @
