Let v and v′ be the initial and final speed of the body.
The Kinetic energies of the body will be 12mv2 and 12mv′2.
Potential Energies on the earth surface = =GMmR and
final potential energy (at ∞)=0
Applying the principle of conservation of energy i.e.,
Initial KE + Initial PE = Final KE + Final PE
12mv2−GMmR=12mv′2+0
But GMmR=12mv2e where ve is the escape speed and v=3ve
∴12mv2−12mv2e=12mv′2
⇒12m(3ve)2−12mv2e=12mv′2
⇒v′=√8ve⇒v′=√8×11.2=31.68 km/s.
The speed of the body far away from the earth is 31.68 km/s.
