Answer:
The velocity imparted to the rocket is 2. a little more than the escape velocity of fire from the earth’s surface.
Escape velocity:
- The escape velocity is defined as the minimum velocity required for an object to escape the gravitational pull of a primary body.
- After achieving the escape velocity, the object can break from the clutches of gravitational pull and can reach infinite distance.
- The escape velocity is given as
, where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the object, and r is the distance between the centers of the object and the body.
Explanation:
Since r is the distance between the centers of the object and the body, the smaller the distance, the greater the escape velocity needed.
- The rocket is fired from inside a deep mine.
- This implies that the distance r is decreased.
- Hence, the escape velocity will be more.
Therefore, to escape the earth's gravitational pull, the rocket should be fired with a little more velocity than the escape velocity.
