Which requires more fuel a rocket goin to the moon or a rocket comin from the moon?

Due to the higher gravity amount, a rocket will be pulled back when leaving earth, and pulled forward when going to earth.


Would a rocket leaving the moon surface require as great a speed or force as one leaving the earth surface?

No, a rocket leaving the moon's surface would not require as great a speed or force as one leaving the Earth's surface. This is because the moon has lower gravity than Earth, so the escape velocity required to overcome gravity and leave the moon is lower than that required to leave Earth.

What stops oxygen from leaving the planet?

The gravity of the Earth and to a smaller extent the Van Allan Belt.


A rocket has been fired upwards to launch a satellite in its orbit .Name the 2 forces action on the rocket after leaving the launching pad?

The two main forces acting on the rocket after leaving the launching pad are thrust (produced by the rocket's engines) propelling it upwards, and gravity pulling it back towards the Earth.


How do astronauts leave the earth?

astronauts leave earth by the liftoff of the space shuttle and rockets, it is called force of the rocket. The engine starts and liquid fuel comes out of the rocket and pushes them up.


How long does it take a rocket to leave earth?

It takes about 8-15 minutes for a rocket to reach space after launch, depending on the rocket's size and specific trajectory. Once in space, it can take several hours to travel far enough from Earth to be considered as "leaving" it.


Why does a firework rocket fall back to earth?

After a firework rocket is launched, it reaches a certain height where the fuel is expended and the upward thrust stops. At this point, gravity takes over and begins to pull the rocket back down to Earth. Additionally, air resistance and drag force also play a role in slowing down the rocket's upward motion and causing it to fall back.


Rocket A travels with speed 0.800c relative to the earth Rocket B passes rocket A with speed 0.500c relative to rocket A Determine the speed of rocket B relative to the earth Assume that the earth?

0.929c formula is: vbe =( vae +vba )/(1+( vae *vba )/c2 )


How long would it take to travel to the moon by rocket?

Apollo took on average 2.9 days from leaving Earth orbit to injection into Lunar orbit, and basically the same on return.


What causes a rocket to drop back to earth?

A rocket drops back to Earth due to the force of gravity pulling it down. Once the rocket's engines stop providing thrust, the gravity of Earth becomes the dominant force, causing the rocket to descend.


Why does the life cycle never stops?

If it stops there will be no life in earth.
