Get the velcocity mug.Terminal velocity is when you are diagnosed with going the maximum speed in a defined direction using only gravitational potential. It is life threatening as it is a terminal disease.

Get the Velocity Traptor mug.Another go to nic spot for OU tards. This place is HELLA slept on because not enough people know about it even though it is BY FAR the BEST nic spot in Norman. The inside of this place looks clean af, as soon as you walk in, you'll see a big ass fish tank (which apparently happens to be a common theme among nic spots in Norman) and you'll see a lounge area with a straight up vape bar. This place is definitely the spot and also happens to have the best prices in town.
I went to Velocity Vapor the other night and I thought I was gonna be in and out of that hoe but I was surprisingly the only there so the owner invited me to play pool with him at the pool table so I spent over an hour there just playing pool and blowing PHAT clouds.

Get the Velcrocity mug.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
