Cube Corner Classic

A particle of mass m = 1 k g m=1kg is placed at one of the corners of cube( M M of 1000 k g 1000kg uniformly distributed over the volume)of side a = 1 m a=1m . Find the velocity required by that particle to escape from that cube's gravitational field forever. Take G = 1 G=1 (for simplicity)


The answer is 48.786.

Potential energy of the ball and cube is 1000/√((x-1)^2+(y-1)^2+(z-1)^2)dxdydz Integrate from (x=0 to x=1)(y=0 to y=1)(z=0toz=1) On integrating we get ∆U=1190.04 (1/2)v^2=1190.04 V=48.786

But sorry For inconvinience as i dont know how to write math expressions here it will be good if anyone teaches me

@dark angel you can learn it yourself also. By going into formatting guide
