Cosmic Velocity - Second
Cosmic velocity is the minimum velocity an object must have to escape the gravitational influence of a celestial body without further propulsion.
History/Origin
The concept of cosmic velocity originated in the early 20th century with the development of orbital mechanics and space exploration, initially used to describe escape velocities from planets and the Earth.
Current Use
Cosmic velocity is used in astrophysics and space science to determine escape velocities for spacecraft and celestial bodies, aiding in mission planning and understanding gravitational influences.
Mile/minute
A unit of speed representing the number of miles traveled per minute.
History/Origin
The mile per minute has been used historically in contexts such as aviation and transportation to measure rapid speeds before the widespread adoption of metric units and modern speed measurements like miles per hour or meters per second.
Current Use
Currently, mile per minute is rarely used in everyday contexts but may appear in specialized fields such as aviation, military, or scientific calculations where high-speed measurements are relevant.
