A projectile is shot directly away from earths surface


A projectile is shot directly away from Earth's surface. Neglect the rotation of the Earth. What multiple of Earth's radius RE gives the radial distance (from the Earth's center) the projectile reaches if (a) its initial speed is 0.498 of the escape speed from Earth and (b) its initial kinetic energy is 0.498 of the kinetic energy needed to escape Earth? (Give your answers as unit less numbers.)
