A rocket expels exhaust at a rate of 50 m/s for 50 seconds. The rocket weighs...
A rocket consumes fuel at a rate of 5840 kg/s. The exhaust speed is 1670m/s. The acceleration of gravity = 9.8 m/s^2. What is the thrust of the rocket?
a rocket is shot upward. its motor burns for ten seconds giving an acceleration of 15m/s/s, but after it burns it is in free fall. draw the velocity v. time graph, acceleration v. time graph and the position v. time graph. how high above the ground is the rocket once the motor runs out, how fast is the rocket traveling once its motor runs out, how fast is the rocket traveling when it reaches its maximum height, and what is...
Suppose a 3950-kg space probe expels 3300 kg of its mass at a constant rate with an exhaust speed of 1.85 × 103 m/s. show answer No Attempt Calculate the increase in speed, in meters per second, of the space probe. You may assume the gravitational force is negligible at the probe’s location. Δv =
QB: The Rocket Equation The velocity of a rocket t seconds after liftoff from earth can be modeled by v(t) = -g*t - v_e * Ln( (m-r*t)/m ) where g = 9.8 m/s^2, the usual earth gravity value, v_e = exhaust velocity, 3000 m/s (the e here isn't related to 2.71828...) m = initial mass of the rocket+fuel: 30,000 kg r = rate of using fuel = 160 kg/s i) Find a formula for the acceleration function a(t) and graph...
4. A 90 kg rocket stuntman steps off of a platform that is 50 m above the ground (and he therefore starts at rest). While he is descending, his rocket pack exerts a steady upward force of 800 N. Ignore air resistance. (a) What is the magnitude and direction of the net force on the stuntman? (b) What is his acceleration? (c) How long does it take him to reach the ground? (d) What is his speed when he reaches...

A ball is thrown vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 18.80 m/s, from the ground. How long is the ball in the air? (Neglect air resistance.) What is the greatest height reached by the ball? Calculate the time at which the ascending ball reaches a height of 12.8 m above the ground. A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward with a constant acceleration of 53.0 m/s^2, until the fuel is used up after 6.80s. What...
A model rocket accelerates from rest upwards at 50 m/s^2 for 2s before its engine burns out. The rocket then coasts upward. What is the maximum height that the rocket reaches (assume air resistance is negligible)?
The last stage of a rocket, which is traveling at a speed of 8000 m/s, consist of two parts that are clamped together: a rocket case with a mass of 220.0 kg and a payload capsule with a mass of 120.0 kg. When the clamp is released, a compressed spring causes the two parts to separate with a relative speed of 910.0 m/s. (a) What are the speeds of the two parts after they have separated? Assume that all velocities...
A 975 kg two-stage rocket is traveling at a speed of 5.10×103 m/s with respect to Earth when a pre-designed explosion separates the rocket into two sections of equal mass that then move at a speed of 2.10×103 m/s relative to each other along the original line of motion. What is the speed of each section (relative to Earth) after the explosion? What are the direction of each section (relative to Earth) after the explosion? How much energy was supplied...
