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.


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.
