(b) What is the escape speed (from the moon) for an object on the surface of the moon?
(c) What is the escape speed from the earth for an object that is as far from the earth as the orbit of the moon?
(d) At some point between the earth and the moon, an object would be pulled with equal strength towards both bodies. How far from the earth is that point?

Launch a book from a cannon which is inclined at 45 degree to the horizontal and facing east. Write pertinent formulas and calculations that explains the motion of the book through space. Consider the effects due to: gravity near the surface of the Earth, air friction, the rotation of Earth and pseudo forces, the shape of the book and its rotation, universal gravitation, special relativity, and chaos theory. Consider a large range of initial velocities: from so small that the book just barely leaves the cannon to so large to consider special relativity.
