Glossary term: 逃逸速度
Description: 逃逸速度是物體要永久逃離天體引力場所需的最小速度,在物理上它是一個標量,因此更準確的說法是“逃逸速率”,但“逃逸速度”這一術語更為常用。最簡單的情況是具有球對稱的天體,這對描述恆星和行星來說是一個很好的近似。在這種情況下,質量為m的天體,其中心距離為r的位置的逃逸速度可由公式√(2Gm/r)給出,其中G為引力常數。對於球形天體而言,其表面至中心的距離即為半徑,因此逃逸速度取決於天體的半徑和質量。例如,太陽表面的逃逸速度為617.5公里/秒(km/s),地球為11.2 km/s,而月球為2.4 km/s,這意味著在月球上物體擺脫其引力需要達到的速度比在地球上更低。
