Write a short note.
Escape Velocity
Advertisements
उत्तर
- The minimum velocity with which a body should be projected from the surface of a planet or moon, so that it escapes from the gravitational influence of the planet or moon is called as escape velocity.
- Escape velocity is given as, `"v"_"esc" = sqrt((2"GM")/"R") = sqrt(2"gR")`, where M is mass of the planet, R is radius of the planet and g is acceleration due to gravity of the planet.
- The escape velocity is different for different planets.
