Question

9.7 A rocket is in elliptic orbit around the earth. To put it into an escape
orbit, its engine is fired briefly, changing the rocket's velocity by V.
Where in the orbit, and in what direction, should the firing occur to attain
escape with a minimum value of V?​

Answer 1

Answer:

for rockets escape from the Earth, you need enough thrust to escape the gravitational pull of the Earth. They also need sufficient thrust to allow them to travel with very high speed i.e escape velocity. ... To escape from Earth, a rocket must do work against the force of gravity as it travels over a distance.
