    Calculating impact velocity of freefalling object with increasing grav

    Homework Statement A spaceship is in a vertical free fall towards an airless moon. It starts out at 1,247,000m above sea level and has an initial vertical speed of -132 m/s. The moon's radius is 200,000m and gravity at sea level is 1.63 M/s^2, but decreases with distance. Calculate the...
