Velocity quantity, momentum, is a vector and defined by In special relativity, the dimensionless Lorentz factor appears frequently, and is given by where γ is the Lorentz factor and "c" is the speed of light. Escape velocity is the minimum speed a ballistic object needs to escape from a massive body such as Earth. It represents the kinetic energy that, when added to the object's gravitational potential energy, (which is always negative) is equal to zero. The general formula for the escape velocity of an object at a distance "r" from the center of a planet with mass "M" is where
The Velocity of Gary The Velocity of Gary The Velocity of Gary, also known as The Velocity of Gary* *(Not His Real Name), is a 1999 American dramatic comedy film directed by Dan Ireland and written by James Still, based on his homonymous play.
