Kinematics
A machine is a device that accepts energy in some available form and utilizes it to do a type of work. Energy, work, or power has to be transferred from one mechanical part to another to run a machine. While the transfer of energy between two machine par…
Kinetic Energy and Work-Energy Theorem
In physics, work is the product of the net force in direction of the displacement and the magnitude of this displacement or it can also be defined as the energy transfer of an object when it is moved for a distance due to the forces acting on it in the d…

Question

There exista a spherical planet with a mass of M and a radius of R. How much energy is required to take a rocket of a mass m from rest on the surface of the planet to a circular orbit a height h above the surface?
Find using the Energy Difference Ef -Ei where Ef is the energy in orbit and Ei is the energy at rest on the surface. h is not small
