  G M m ( R + x ) 2 = G M m   ( R − x ) R 3

->R3 = (R + x)2 (R – x)

->R3 = (R2– x2) (R + x)

->x2 + Rx – R2 = 0


x = − R ± R + 4 R 2 2

x = ( 5 R − 1 ) 2 R

g = A x x 2 + a 2 3 / 2  

⇒ ∫ v 0 ? d V = - ∫ x ∞ ? g d x

⇒ O - V = - ∫ A x a 2 + x 2 3 / 2

Let, a 2 + x 2 = t 2

⇒ 2 x d x = 2 t d t

⇒ x d x = t d t

⇒ V = ∫ A t d t t 3 ⇒ - A t ⇒ - A a 2 + x 2 x ∞

⇒ V = A a 2 + x 2

Apply energy conservation,

U i + K i = U f + K f

⇒ − G M m R + K i = − G M m 3 R + 1 2 m v 2

⇒ − G M m R + K i = − G M m 3 R + 1 2 × m × G M 3 R

⇒ K i = − 1 6 G M m R + G M m R

K i = 5 6 G M m R
