A satellite is launched from a point close to the surface of the earth (radius RR ) with a velocity v=v01.5v=v_0 \sqrt{1.5}, where v0v_0 is the velocity in a circular orbit. If the initial velocity imparted to the satellite is horizontal, the maximum distance from the surface of the earth during its revolution is
