AI Generated Solution

To find the escape velocity required for a rocket to pull out of the gravitational force of Mars, we can use the relationship between the escape velocities of Earth and Mars based on their masses and radii. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Values:** - Mass of Earth (Me) = 9 * Mass of Mars (Mm) - Radius of Earth (Re) = 2 * Radius of Mars (Rm) - Escape velocity on Earth (Ve) = 11.2 km/s ...
