When on Earth, you can escape if you move away from the Earth at the "escape" speed. Gravity will slow you down and you will reach zero speed at an infinite distance.
17,500 miles per hour puts the shuttle in orbit. BUT the gravity is still there. I'm fact there is about 90% of the gravity while the shuttle is on the ground. That great rate of speed is required to keep the shuttle from falling back to earth. At that speed the shuttle is basically falling around the planet.
A rocket needs to travel at 7 miles-per-second or about 25,000-miles-per-hour to leave the pull of earth's gravitational force, and reach outer space. This speed is known as escape velocity.
If the rocket has a certain speed, it will escape from gravity due to its own momentum. To speed the rocket up, currently chemical combustion is used. The burning gas goes out in one direction, thus pushing the rocket in the opposite direction.If the rocket has a certain speed, it will escape from gravity due to its own momentum.

to break off from earths gravity they need to reach speed of 11.2 kilometers per second
The speed at which a rocket must travel to escape the gravitational pull of the earth is 25,000 miles per hour.
Escape velocity is the speed you would have to go to escape gravity.
the rocket speed required to escape out of the earth's gravity is known as escape velocity which is numerically equal to 11.2 km per sec.

Escape Velocity
You don't. "Escape velocity" is a meaningless number. "Escape velocity" is the speed at which a CANNON SHELL must be fired in order to escape from the Earth's gravity well. With a powered rocket, you can "escape" from the Earth's gravity at ANY speed - as long as you have enough fuel.
about 25,000 mph to completely escape earth's gravity
I think it's because of gravity.

In order to escape the gravity of a black hole, an object would have to travel faster than the speed of light - something that is impossible.
