If I project a body at a very large velocity such that it reaches a height h which is comparable to Earth's radius, then how to derive an equation for 'h' in terms of initial velocity 'u' and other constants.
This is where I ended up with this problem
S = u²/2g
But g is variable with height as h approaches R
So dg = GM/(R+dr)² --- this is where I think I might be wrong
Hence dS = u²(R+dr)²/GM
So how do I go ahead?
