The escape velocity of a body projected vertically upwards from the surface of the earth is 11km/sec. If the body is projected at an angle of 45° with the vertically, the escape velocity will be ___________

The escape velocity of a body projected vertically upwards from the surface of the earth is 11km/sec. If the body is projected at an angle of 45° with the vertically, the escape velocity will be ___________ Correct Answer 11km/sec

Escape velocity does not depend on the angle of the projection of the projectile. Hence the escape velocity remains the same as the earlier condition.
