How much must we compress the spring


A package of mass 5 kg sits at the equator of an airless asteroid of mass 5.0 x 1020 kg and radius 2.9 x 105 m. We want to launch the package in such a way that it will never come back, and when it is very far from the asteroid it will be traveling with speed 241 m/s. We have a large and powerful spring whose stiffness is 2.3 105 N/m. How much must we compress the spring?
