In physics, escape velocity is the minimum speed needed for an object to break free from the gravitational attraction of a massive body. The escape velocity from earth is about 40,270 km/h (25,020 mph).
Exit speed is generally faster than bat speed. A 20% variance would be a very rough rule of thumb. The formula is exit speed=q*(pitch speed) + (1+q)*(bat speed) where q is roughly 0.2 for a wood bat. Average MLB fastball speed is 91 mph out of the hand, and 83 mph at the plate. Example: MLB average exit speed is 103 mph, bat speed ranges roughly from 70-85 mph. Wood bats generate a lower exit speed than a non-wood bat.
