4͒Ϫ2͞5. 874. Application Example 11 Escape Velocity A rocket, launched vertically from Earth, has an initial velocity of 10,000 meters per second. All of the fuel is used for launching. 37 ϫ 106 ϫ 1024͒ meters per second. Will the rocket escape Earth’s gravitational field? 05 ϫ 10 6 meters per second? 7 meters per second. 7 meters per second. So, the rocket will not escape Earth’s gravitational field. 67 Ί The escape velocity is ϫ 1024͒ CONCEPT CHECK Let m and n be positive real numbers greater than 1.

If a is negative, then its opposite, Ϫa, is positive. For instance, if a ϭ Ϫ5, then Ϫa ϭ Ϫ ͑Ϫ5͒ ϭ 5. Properties of Zero Let a and b be real numbers, variables, or algebraic expressions. Then the following properties are true. 1. a ϩ 0 ϭ a and aϪ0ϭa 2. a и 0 ϭ 0 3. 0 ϭ 0, a 4. a is undefined. 0 a 0 5. Zero-Factor Property: If ab ϭ 0, then a ϭ 0 or b ϭ 0.
