Find out how far from center of earth-projectile travels


A projectile is fired straight up from the surface of Earth at the South Pole having an initial speed equivalent to one third the escape speed. (The radius of Earth is around 6.38 x 106 m.)

(i) Avoiding air resistance, find out how far from the center of the Earth the projectile travels before stopping momentarily.

(ii) Determine the altitude of the projectile at this instant?
