Calculate the ratio of the energy that would be required to put a mass M into orbit near the Earth's surface (if there were no friction) and the energy to put the same into distant space.
I'm stuck. How am i suppose to calculate the ratio. I know the that the energy to put M into orbit near the Earth's surface would be a small positive energy while putting it into distant space would be a large positive energy.
