Jupiter's moon Io has active volcanoes (in fact, it is the most volcanically active body in the solar system) that eject material as high as 500 km (or even higher) above the surface. Io has a mass of 8.93×1022kg and a radius of 1821 km. Part A
How high would this material go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on Io? (RE = 6370 km, mE=5.96×1024kg)
Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Hint 1for Part A. Find speed of the material ejected from Io.
Step 1: Use conservation of energy (universal potential energy) to find the speed with which the material is ejected from Io. Remember that at the maximum altiute reached bu the material the speed is zero.

Step 2: After you find the speed of ejection from step 1, use the conservation of energy for the material ejected with this speed from Earth and find the altitude (distance from surface).
