Proposals to mine resources from the Moon have included
suggestions that the goods could be launched toward Earth using an
electromagnetic railgun, also called a mass
driver, which is essentially an apparatus like that described
in (Figure 1), with a cargo capsule incorporated into the
conducting bar. With rails spaced 1.00 m apart and a magnetic field
of 0.807 T, what emf would be needed to achieve a speed that's 60 %
greater than lunar escape speed? The lunar escape speed is 2.38
km/s.
