What is the escape speed for an object to leave the surface of Jupiter?

How many Earth days are in a year for Jupiter? (Note: Jupiter’s mass is 1.898 x 1027 kg, its radius is 43,441 miles and it is located 483.8 million miles from the Sun) (Additional note: Earth is located 92.96 million miles from the Sun)

P1:Suppose an object is launched from Earth with 0.52 times the escape speed. How many multiples of Earth's radius (RE = 6.37 x 106 m) in radial distance will the object reach before falling back toward Earth? The distances are measured relative to Earth's center, so a ratio of 1.00 would correspond to an object on Earth's surface. For this problem, neglect Earth's rotation and the effect of its atmosphere. For reference, Earth's mass is 5.972 x 1024 kg. Your...
