Starship A weighs 2 tons and requires a speed of about 11 km s to escape from the Earth The escape velocity from Earth of Starship B that weighs 4 tons is?

Escape velocity is independent of an objects mass, therefore the escape velocity of the two starhips are identical.

An object that weighs how 30 lb on earth weighs how many pounds on the moon?
an object that weighs 30 ib on earth weighs how many pounds on the moon
How much the moon weighs?
the moon weighs 3,578,348,365 lbs
Why would on object that weighs 294 newtons on earth weigh only 50 newtons on the moon?
Because mass and force are related to the acceleration* of the body on which the object rests. Earth's acceleration at or near the surface is 9.807 meters per second squared. The moon's acceleration is about only 1.62 meters per second squared, thus the difference in mass and force. * Acceleration is the rate at which the velocity of an object changes over time.
Who has more mass on the moon if the child weighs 10.8lbs and the adult weighs 25lbs?
An adult
What is the weight of a newtons ball that weighs 11lb?
On earth, an 11-pound ball weighs 48.902N
How much thrust is needed to escape earths gravity if something weighs 1520 pounds?
The general idea is that the escape velocity from Earth is 11.2 km/second. This assumes there is no atmosphere. I guess "thrust" would be expressed in units of force; the force can be just about anything, from just slightly bit more than the object's weight (to counter Earth's gravity), to a lot more, depending how long the force is applied. In other words, if you apply more force, you need to apply the force for less time to achieve escape velocity.
What weighs 5000 tons?
Elon Musk's newest starship intended for interplanetary travel weighs roughly 5000 tons on liftoff. Source: open.spotify. [.com] /show/4rOoJ6Egrf8K2IrywzwOMk
A skydiver who weighs 500 N reaches terminal velocity of 90kmh the air resistance on the diver is then?
250N
How does momentum work?
Momentum is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. Momentum= Mass x Velocity. When the object weighs 20kg and is traveling at 20m/s North it will have a momentum of 400kgm/s North.
Why would a train have more inertia than a car if they both had the same velocity they both they both?
While they may both have the same speed, the train WEIGHS thousands of times what the car weighs.
Can a car and a truck have the same momentum?
yes, the car would have to be traveling at a faster velocity though, assuming that the car weighs less
A boy weighs 40 kilograms He runs at a velocity of 4 meters per second what is his momentum?
160 kilogram meters per second north
What is the meaning of magnitude in science?
Size of a certain parameter.I walked at a velocity of 5 m/sHe weighs 70 kg.I hit him with a force of 100 N.
Which is more powerful ak47 or a desert eagle 50?
you answer yourself with these numbers: AK-47's bullet weighs 125 grains and has a velocity of 720 m/s. Desert Eagle's bullet weighs 325 grains BUT has a velocity of 400 m/s. (Desert eagle has more power in close range, AK-47 will have more power in long range and has better penetration power)
How much thrust is needed to escape earths gravity if something weighs 1520?
Any force larger than the weight is sufficient, if it is applied long enough.
What is angular momentum?
Angular momentum is an expression of an objects mass and rotational speed. Momentem is the velocity of an object times its mass, or how fast something is moving times how much it weighs. Therefore angular momentum is the objects mass times the angular velocity where angular velocity is how fast something is rotating expressed in terms like revolutions per minute or radians per second or degrees per second.
