Infinite divisibility — The concept of infinite divisibility arises in different ways in philosophy, physics, economics, order theory (a branch of mathematics), and probability theory (also a branch of mathematics). One may speak of infinite divisibility, or the lack… … Wikipedia
Escape velocity — In physics, escape velocity is the speed where the kinetic energy of an object is equal to the magnitude of its gravitational potential energy, as calculated by the equation,:U g = frac{ Gm 1m 2}{r}.It is commonly described as the speed needed to … Wikipedia
