Find the speed of an object needed to escape from the solar system starting from the surface of Earth. Assume there are no other bodies involved and do not account for 2GM 2GMm = mv² 2GMm and include the potential energy R the fact that Earth is moving in its orbit. [Hint: Equation vesc = does not apply. Use Equation mv 11 72 of both Earth and the Sun.) Submit Answer Tries 0/40 The orbital speed of Earth about the Sun of 29.8 km/s. What is the minimum speed relative to Earth for the object to achieve the escape velocity and in what direction should it leave Earth? O There is no preferred direction. O Opposite to the direction of the Earth's tangential velocity. O Radially out with the Sun as the center. O In the same direction as the Earth's tangential velocity. Submit Answer Tries 0/40 What will be the shape of the trajectory? O Hyperbola O Circular O Parabola O Ellipse Submit Answer Tries 0/40
