Difference between Escape velocity and Parabolic trajectory

Escape velocity vs. Parabolic trajectory

In physics, escape velocity is the minimum speed needed for an object to escape from the gravitational influence of a massive body. In astrodynamics or celestial mechanics a parabolic trajectory is a Kepler orbit with the eccentricity equal to 1.

Similarities between Escape velocity and Parabolic trajectory

Escape velocity and Parabolic trajectory have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Characteristic energy, Circular orbit, Hyperbolic trajectory, Kinetic energy, Parabola, Specific orbital energy, Standard gravitational parameter.

Characteristic energy

In astrodynamics, the characteristic energy (C_3) is a measure of the excess specific energy over that required to just barely escape from a massive body.

Circular orbit

A circular orbit is the orbit with a fixed distance around the barycenter, that is, in the shape of a circle.

Hyperbolic trajectory

In astrodynamics or celestial mechanics, a hyperbolic trajectory is the trajectory of any object around a central body with more than enough speed to escape the central object's gravitational pull.

Specific orbital energy

In the gravitational two-body problem, the specific orbital energy \epsilon\,\! (or vis-viva energy) of two orbiting bodies is the constant sum of their mutual potential energy (\epsilon_p\,\!) and their total kinetic energy (\epsilon_k\,\!), divided by the reduced mass.

Standard gravitational parameter

In celestial mechanics, the standard gravitational parameter μ of a celestial body is the product of the gravitational constant G and the mass M of the body.

Escape velocity and Parabolic trajectory Comparison

Escape velocity has 81 relations, while Parabolic trajectory has 22. As they have in common 7, the Jaccard index is 6.80% = 7 / (81 + 22).
