The escape velocity from the moon's surface is less than that on the earth's surface,because:

The masses and radii of the Earth and Moon are $M_1, R_1$ and $M_2, R_2$ respectively. Their centres are at a distance $d$ apart. The minimum speed with which a body of mass $m$ should be projected from a distance $2d/3$ from the centre of $M_1$ so as to escape to infinity is:

Escape velocity at the surface of the Earth is $11.2 \, km/s$. If the radius of a planet is double that of the Earth but its mean density is the same as that of the Earth,then the escape velocity will be ........ $km/s$.
