the awnser is yes because when I did this assignment I got an A
The average speed of the football is 15 meters per second. Just divide both of the numbers by 4 :)
<u>We are given:</u>
Mass of the rocket = 10 kg
Weight of the Rocket = 100 N
Upward thrust applied by the rocket = 400 N
<u>Net upward force on the rocket:</u>
We are given that gravity pulls the rocket with a force of 100 N
Also, the rocket applied a force of 400N against gravity
Net upward force = Upward thrust - Force applied by gravity
Net upward force = 400 - 100
Net upward force = 300 N
<u>Upward Acceleration of the Rocket:</u>
From newton's second law:
F = ma
<em>replacing the variables</em>
300 = 10 * a
a = 30 m/s²
Gravitational potential energy :)
