A. In Jules Verne's 1865 story, sunk in the Earth in Florida. (a) Find the minimum muzzle speed needed to shoot a shell straight up to a height above the Earth equal to the Earth's radius RE. (b) Find the minimum muzzle speed that would allow a shell to escape from the Earth completely (the escape speed). Neglect air resistance, the Earth's rotation, and the gravitational pull of the moon. The Earth's radius and mass are RE=6.38x106 m and mE-5.98 x1024 kg.
