How is the escape speed related to the object mass?

    not very much if the object orbited and teh object escaping are hugely disproportionate, for example the escape speed of the earth is the same for a motor cycle or a semi truck

    Ve = √(2*G*M/R) where M is the mass , R the radius of the body and G the universal gravitational constant worth 6.673*10^-11
