Review Constants | Periodic Table If you launch a projectile upward with a high enough speed, its kinetic energy is sufficient to allow it to escape the earth's gravity-it will go up and not come back down. Given enough time, hydrogen and helium gas atoms in the earth's atmosphere will escape, so these elements are not present in our atmosphere. Part A Explain why hydrogen and helium atoms have the necessary speed to escape but why other elements, such as oxygen and nitrogen, do not. Drag the terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences. Reset Help direct This is because hydrogen and helium, being lighter, move faster slower The root-mean-square speed of a particle is in inverse proportion with the proportion with the of the temperature and in of its mass. Hence square square root Submit Request Answer the lighter particles can escape the earth's gravity while havier cannot.
