A Golf ball is designed to achieve speeds up to 100 mph.

While it's certainly possible with super human strength to hit it harder, you'd need to achieve 2.38 km/s or 5,324 mph (8,568 kph) for it to escape the Moons gravity.

Whilst possible in sci-fi magazines, a golf ball would just explode as soon as it was hit at those velocities.

How much speed required to go against gravity?

Assuming there is no air resistance, if an object starts at a speed of 11.2 km/sec, it can escape the gravitational field of Earth. This "escape velocity" is different for different planets, moons, etc.Assuming there is no air resistance, if an object starts at a speed of 11.2 km/sec, it can escape the gravitational field of Earth.

Since it also hav gravity..Why moon has no air in it?

As the moons gravity is comparatively weak the escape velocity from the moon is much lower. The speed of the gasses would exceed this velocity and therefore escape to space. There are of course other factors that effect these matters.


What is the escape velocity of Phobos and Diemos?

The escape velocity of Phobos is 11.4 m/s, and the escape velocity of Deimos is 5.5 m/s. These are the minimum velocities needed for an object to overcome the gravitational pull of the moons and escape into space.


Would a spacecraft need as much fuel to escape from the moons gravity as it would to escape from the earths?

Escape velocity for the moon is a little over 5000 miles per hour. For the earth it is about 25,000 miles per hour. So the moon requires a fifth of the energy required to escape the earth.


How are the moons seen from the surface of Jupiter?

You would not be able to see the moons from the surface; Jupiter's atmosphere is too thick.


Do any moons have moons of their own?

No moons in our solar system have moons of their own, but it's theoretically possible.


What is the earth's moons surface like?

The moons surface is covered with regolith. There are 2 main kinds of surface; maria and highlands. There are lots of craters and dust. the moons sky is always black.it has no air or water


Velocity of light was first measured by?

By Roemer, observing the moons of Jupiter.


What created the moons surface?

Metorites


Does Mercury surface has many craters?

Yes it is similar to the moons surface


What is the relationship between moons surface gravity lack of an atmosphere and temperature range?

The Moon's gravity causes the lack of atmosphere (any possible atmosphere evaporates out into space in a fairly short time); and the lack of atmosphere causes the extreme temperatures.


What features are found on the moons surface?

craters
