A 10 kg mass is dropped from rest, at a distance of h = 3200km
above the earth’s surface. What velocity does it achieve when it
hits the earth? Take the mass of the Earth as Me = 6 ∗ 1024kg, the
radius of the Earth as Re = 6400km, and the gravitational constant
G = (2/3) ∗ 10−10Nm2/kg2, and ignore air resistance.
