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.
How does a rocket get out of earths orbit?
A rocket gets out of Earth's orbit by achieving escape velocity, which is the speed needed to break free from the gravitational pull of Earth. The rocket's engines provide thrust to accelerate it to this speed, allowing it to overcome Earth's gravity and travel into deep space.
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.
A rocket that moves upward from earth's surface at escape velocity will?
Escape the earth's gravitational pull and continue out into space. However, a rocket does not need to be launched at the escape velocity as it can continue to accelerate as it climbs. A gun projectile would need to be fired with the escape velocity. In a perfect system with only the projectile and the Earth: If the projectile is fired with the exact escape velocity it will travel to infinity away from the Earth. Upon reaching infinitely far away from Earth the projectile would have zero velocity. All of its kinetic energy (movement) would be transferred to potential energy.
Is orbital velocity the velocity a rocket must reach to fly off into space?
No.Orbital Velocity is the velocity required by a body to achieve a circular orbit around its primary.Escape velocity is the minimum velocity needed to escape a gravitational field

What is velocity that a rocket must attain to escape the force of gravity on earth?
The velocity of a any object to surpass the gravity of earth commonly known as escape velocity is 11.2Km/s.
What is the action of the spacecraft leaving the earth called?
escape velocity if its leaving earths gravity
What is Rocket speed per sec to escape from earth 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.
What is the name for the speed a rocket must reach to escape the earth's gravity?
Escape velocity is the speed that a rocket must reach to break free from Earth's gravity and enter space. It is the minimum velocity required for an object to overcome the pull of Earth's gravity.

Can an intercontinental ballistic missile reach escape velocity?
Yes. Probes have already be sent to the Moon, and other planets; this requires a velocity very near the escape velocity from Earth. Other probes are leaving the Solar System, so they achieved the much higher escape velocity required to escape the attraction from the Sun.
Does a rocket always need the escape of 11.2 to escape the earth?
That's the initial speed the rocket would need to escape Earth, assuming it starts close to Earth, and no additional impulse is provided later. With a gradual impulse - for example an ion impulse - i.e., providing impulse over time, it isn't necessary to start with this speed. However, the rocket still needs the same total amount of energy to escape from Earth.
The escape velocity from Earth is greater for larger rockets than for small ones?
Escape velocity from Earth depends only on the mass of the Earth and the distance from its center, not the mass or size of the rocket. All rockets need to reach the same escape velocity to leave Earth's gravitational pull, regardless of their size.

Can you help with this question The space rocket only needed to go 1.4 kilometres per second to escape the Moon's gravitational pull on the way back Why is this less than taking off from Earth?
The rocket leaving Earth has to overcome the Earth's gravitational pull, which is much larger than the Moon's. The "escape velocity" for Earth is nearly 5 times that of the Moon's escape velocity, which is actually about 2.4 kilometers per second. Actually, the details of how spaceflight works are more complicated than that, but the basic idea is correct.
