Cosmic Velocity - Third
The third cosmic velocity is the minimum speed an object must reach to escape the gravitational pull of the Earth without further propulsion, approximately 11.2 km/s.
History/Origin
The concept of cosmic velocities was developed in the early 20th century to describe the different escape velocities from celestial bodies. The third cosmic velocity specifically relates to Earth's escape velocity, becoming prominent with advancements in astronautics and space exploration.
Current Use
The third cosmic velocity is used in space mission planning to determine the required speed for spacecraft to leave Earth's gravitational influence and reach interplanetary or interstellar space.
Velocity Of Sound In Pure Water
The velocity of sound in pure water is the speed at which sound waves propagate through water under ideal, pure conditions, typically measured in meters per second (m/s).
History/Origin
The measurement of sound velocity in water has been studied since the 19th century, with early experiments by physicists like Lord Rayleigh, contributing to the understanding of acoustic properties of water and its dependence on temperature, pressure, and salinity.
Current Use
The velocity of sound in water is used in underwater acoustics, sonar technology, oceanography, and environmental monitoring to determine water properties, map underwater features, and facilitate communication and navigation.
