Escape Velocity:
.
if you throw an object straight up, it will rise until the the negative acceleration of gravity stops it, then returns it to Earth. Gravity's force diminishes as distance from the center of the Earth increases, however. So if you can throw the object with enough initial upward velocity so that gravity's decreasing force can never quite slow it to a complete stop, its decreasing velocity can always be just high enough to overcome gravity's pull. The initial velocity needed to achieve that condition is called escape velocity.
.
From the surface of the Earth, escape velocity (ignoring air friction) is about 7 miles per second, or 25,000 miles per hour. Given that initial speed, an object needs no additional force applied to completely escape Earth's gravity

1/2 mv2 = GMm/R
.
Where m is the mass of the object, M mass of the earth, G is the gravitational constant, R is the radius of the earth, and v is the escape velocity. It simplifies to:
.
v = sqrt(2GM/R)
.
or
.
v = sqrt(2gR)
.
Where g is acceleration of gravity on the earth's surface.
.
The value evaluates to be approximately:
.
11100 m/s
40200 km/h
25000 mi/h

A part of the holy trinity of Larry Stylinson Fanfiction. No debates necessary, it's simply one of the best.
Here's the summary:
In the grand scheme of things, finding a date for a wedding should be no problem for Louis Tomlinson. He's rich. He's handsome. He's reasonably well behaved. But when the wedding is for his lifelong best friend (and former boyfriend), and is happening in under a month, finding a date for the ceremony and accompanying festivities becomes more of an adventure than he ever could have planned for.

Get the The Dillinger Escape Plan mug.One of the greatest math/grind/hardcore metal bands to come out in a long time. Using crushing riffs, lots of time/tempo changes, screamed vocals, often interchanged with beautiful harmony in their later work, mental lyrical content and intense live shows, these are a band anyone into extreme metal needs to hear.
Notable albums include:
Irony Is A Dead Scene (Written with Mike Patton, need I say more?)
Calculating Infinity
Miss Machine
Seriously, check them out. I would recommend the songs "34% Burnt", "Setting Fire To Sleeping Giants", "Pig Latin", "The Running Board", "Sugar Coated Sour" and their version of Aphex Twins hit "Come To Daddy" is amazing.
