The velocity of a rocket in space is given by v(t) = A ln(1 + Bt) where A and B are e positive constants. What are the appropriate SI units for A and B? Find the equations for position and acceleration assuming the rocket starts at x = 0. Draw a sketch of v vs t, a vs t, and x vs t.
a.) The acceleration of a rocket fired vertically upwards t seconds after launch is 20+2t ms−2 (as a rocket burns fuel it becomes lighter, so accelerates more quickly). What is the second order differential equation for the height of the rocket. h′′= b.) What is the general solution? (Please use A as the first constant of integration and B as the second): General solution: h = c.) Use the fact that at t = 0 the rocket was on the...
10: A rocket accelerates upward by burning its onboard fuel, so its mass decreases with time. Suppose the initial mass of the rocket at liftoff (including its fuel) is m, the fuel is consumed at rate r, and the exhaust gases are ejected with constant velocity ve (relative to the rocket). A model for the velocity of the rocket in meters per second after t seconds is given by the equation r(t)--gt-ve In (mmrt) where g is the acceleration due...

A rocket accelerates by burning its onboard fuel, so its mass decreases with time. Suppose the initial mass of the rocket at liftoff (including its fuel) is m, the fuel is consumed at rate r, and the exhaust gases are ejected with constant velocity v_e (relative to the rocket). A model for the velocity of the rocket at time t is given by the equation v(t) = -gt - v_e ln m - rt/m where g is the acceleration due...
If a projectile is fired with an initial velocity of vo meters per second at an angle a above the horizontal and air resistance is assumed to be negligible, then its position after t seconds is given by the parametric equations x = (vo cos(a)t y = (vo sin(a)t - +- 1012 where g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s2). (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.) (a) If a gun is fired with a = 30°...
P1.A cannonball is shot at an angle of 45" with an initial velocity vo. This is calculated to exactly land at point B in a projectile trajectory. However, the people at point B launched a rocket with an initial ve locity at 20 from the horizontal sometime after the cannonball launched. The rocket, which will intercept the cannonball at some vertical distance from the ground level, is in a linear path, Find (a) horizontal distance between point A and Point...
