How long does it take a rocket at average speed to escape earths atmosphere?
It takes around 8 minutes for a rocket to reach space and escape Earth's atmosphere. This can vary slightly depending on the specific rocket and its speed.
What speed must a space shuttle get to escape earth's orbit?
A spacecraft travelling at approximately 25,000 miles per hour can escape Earth's orbit. This speed is known as the escape velocity and allows the spacecraft to overcome the gravitational pull of the Earth.
Can you escape gravity by going above the earths atmosphere?
No. To even reduce it by 75% you must travel out to 4000 miles.
How do astronauts travel in space and escape earths atmosphere?
Astronauts travel in space and escape earth's atmosphere by wearing gravity resistant suits and traveling to outer space in a space shuttle that is insulated against the elements.
What causes a meteor to burn?
gases combined with the speed, plus the passing through earths atmosphere. Or to answer in a word........friction!

Can the shuttle escape the earths atmosphere?
No it can't.

Escape velocity is the speed required to?
escape the gravitational well and if the planetoid has one, the atmosphere.

Ignoring air resistance what is the minimum initial speed a projectile must have at the Earths surface if the projectile is to escape the Earths gravitational pull?
The minimum initial speed for a projectile to escape Earth's gravitational pull (escape velocity) is about 11.2 km/s. This speed is independent of the mass of the projectile and is based on the balance between the projectile's kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy. Any speed greater than the escape velocity will allow the projectile to escape Earth's gravitational pull.
Why are helium and the free hydrogen very rare on earth?
Too light and too close to the 1/6 rule in escape speed from earth's gravity. A gas must be withing 1/6 of the escape speed from earth's escape speed for it's gravity to be easily retained in the earth's atmosphere. These two gases are heated too easily. are too light and too close to the escape speed to hang around unfixed, or untrapped in the atmosphere.

Why can helium escape earths atmosphere?
The helium atom does not form a diatomic molecule, unlike the main components of the atmosphere, nitrogen and oxygen, and it is a very light atom, actually the second lightest of all atoms (second only to hydrogen) and it is gravity which holds our atmosphere in place on the surface of the Earth, so the lighter the particle, the more easily it can escape into space.
Force required to break from Earths atmosphere?
The force required to break free from Earth's atmosphere and reach space is known as escape velocity. This velocity is approximately 11.2 kilometers per second (25,000 miles per hour) and varies depending on the location on Earth. It represents the minimum speed an object must have to break free from Earth's gravitational pull.
