WHAT FORCE MUST BE OVERCOME TO REACH ORBIT?
gravity
The velocity a rocket must reach to establish an orbit in space is?
The velocity of rocket must reach 16x than the gravitational force of Earth to establish an orbit in space.
How do you beat gravity on Earth?
To overcome gravity, you must reach "Escape Velocity" to overcome gravity and escape a planet's orbit.
How long does it take a rocket to leave earth?
the shuttle takes about 8 minutes to reach orbit
What may happen to a rocket which rises from the earth never attains escape velocity?
A rocket that doesn't reach "escape velocity" will be overcome by gravity and will be pulled back down to Earth. Also, rockets which go into orbit have not reached escape velocity. Escape velocity is what is needed to completely leave earth's gravity well.
What was the name of the rocket made?
If you mean the first to reach space, they say that a V2 German rocket reached Low-earth-orbit during testing in 1942.

What is the name of the first rocket in space?
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.
How long does it take to get up to space in a rocket?
That totally depends on the weight of the rocket, but most manned rockets take about 8 1/2 minutes to reach orbit.
How long will it take a rocket to get into outer space from the earth surface?
The space shuttle takes 8 minutes to reach orbit.
What must be done to put a rocket into space outside of an orbit of the earth?
It has to reach escape velocity which on Earth is 11.2 Km per second
The velocity a rocket must reach to establish an orbit around earth is called?
Orbital velocity, or Close orbital velocity.
