A m = 31.9 kg object is released from rest at a distance h = 0.636658 R above the Earth's surface. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . For the Earth, RE = 6.38 × 106 m, M = 5.98 × 1024 kg. The gravitational acceleration at the surface of the earth is g = 9.8 m/s 2 . Find the speed of the object when it strikes the Earth's surface. Neglect any atmospheric friction. Caution: You must take into account that the gravitational acceleration depends on distance between the object and the center of the earth. Answer in units of m/s.
