The ratio of the binding energy of a satellite at rest on earth's surface to the binding energy of a satellite of same mass revolving around the earth at a height $h$ above the earth's surface is $(R$= radius of the earth$)$.

• A

  $\frac{2(R+h)}{R}$
• B

  $\frac{R+h}{2R}$
• Correct answer
  C

  $\frac{R+h}{R}$
• D

  $\frac{R}{R+h}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
