On the surface of the Earth, the escape velocity is about 11.2 kilometers per second 06.96 mi/s), which is approximately 34 times the speed of sound (Mach 34) and several times the muzzle velocity of a rifle bullet (up to 1.7 km/s). However, at 9,000 km altitude in "space", it is slightly less than 7.1 km/s. In physics, escape velocity is the speed at which the kinetic energy plus the gravitational potential energy of an object is zero.
