The answer is more complex than your question implies. Mass to orbit, propellants, location of launch, and motor specifications would all be necessary to calculate motor quantities.
The velocity of rocket must reach 16x than the gravitational force of Earth to establish an orbit in space.
gravity
the shuttle takes about 8 minutes to reach orbit
If you mean the first to reach space, they say that a V2 German rocket reached Low-earth-orbit during testing in 1942.
Gravity will pull it down before the rocket can reach the height where clouds form.
If you mean the first to reach space, they say that a V2 German rocket reached Low-earth-orbit during testing in 1942.
The first rocket to reach space was the German V2 in the 1940s. The first spacecraft to achieve orbit was the Soviet Sputnik, launched in 1957.
That totally depends on the weight of the rocket, but most manned rockets take about 8 1/2 minutes to reach orbit.
The space shuttle takes 8 minutes to reach orbit.
It has to reach escape velocity which on Earth is 11.2 Km per second
Orbital velocity, or Close orbital velocity.
Yes, but it has to be travelling at the MOON'S orbital velocity, which is quite a bit more than that needed for low earth or even geosynchronous orbit. The faster one goes, the higher the orbit.
