44. Escape Velocity
2GM • To determine the escape velocity of a planet, you
3 R
would need to know its mass and radius. It
2(6.7 1020 ) (7.4 1022 )
3 (1.7 103 )
would be very important to know the escape
velocity of a planet before you landed on it so
2(6.7 7.4) (1020 1022 )
3 (1.7 103 ) you would know if you had enough fuel and
(99.16) (102 ) velocity to launch from it to get back into space.

31 21 2
(1.7) (103 ) • The astronomical body with the smaller radius
99.16 102 would have a greater escape velocity. As the
1.7 103
radius decreases, the escape velocity increases.

32

42
fall from a given height using a radical equation.
32 1
/ 32
/
42 2 Answers should include the following.
/ 0.81 ft
32
/ • It would take a skydiver approximately
2
42 seconds to fall 10,000 feet. Using the
/ 3.24 ft equation, it would take 25 seconds. The time
3.24 0.81 2.43 ft longer is different in the two calculations because air
resistance slows the skydiver.
• A skydiver can increase the speed of his fall by
lowering air resistance. This can be done by
pulling his arms and legs close to his body. A
skydiver can decrease his speed by holding his
arms and legs out, which increases the air
resistance.
