Gravitation

Question: The escape velocity of an object from the earth depends upon the mass of the earth (M), its mean density $(\rho )$, its radius (R) and the gravitational constant (G). Thus the formula for escape velocity is



1) $v = R\sqrt {\frac{{8\pi }}{3}G\rho }$
2) $v = M\sqrt {\frac{{8\pi }}{3}GR}$
3) $v = \sqrt {2GMR}$
4) $v = \sqrt {\frac{{2GM}}{{{R^2}}}}$
