Introduction. The purpose of this project is to find the dependence of the size and mass of the planets at an escape velocity

The purpose of this project is to find the dependence of the size and mass of the planets at an escape velocity, the velocity is necessary in order to keep the satellite in the orbit and the distance where you can launch a rocket. It can also be described as influence of gravity and the radius of the planet's to the escape velocity, the velocity necessary to maintain the satellite in orbit and the distance obtained by firing a projectile. To explain more clearly, assume there are 2 planets, Planet A and Planet B. Planet A has a mass of and radius . Planet B has a mass of and radius . From this information, we can calculate the density of the planets. Hence; density is mass over volume. Since the planets are spheres, the volume of planets can be calculated using the formula; . After that we are able obtain the value of density of each planets. Density of Planet A is and density of Planet B is .
