Given,
or
escape speed is given as
v = (2GM / R)1/2
here
M is the mass of the planet
R is the radius of the planet
now, for Mars
vm = (2GMm / Rm)1/2
for earth
ve = (2GMe / Re)1/2 = 11.2 km/s
we are given
Mm = Me/9
and Rm = Re/2
thus, we have
vm = (2GMm / Rm)1/2 = (2G(Me /9) / (Re/2))1/2
or
vm = (2/9)1/2 . (2GMe / Re)1/2 = (2/9)1/2.ve
thus,
vm = 0.4714 x ve
or
vm = 0.4714 x 11.2
so, the escape speed of Mars will be
vm = 5.27 km/s
= 7.47 km/sec.
