Your weight pushing down on the chair is the action force. The reaction force is the force exerted by the chair that pushes up on your body.
<span>When the fuel of the rocket is consumed, the acceleration would be zero. However, at this phase the rocket would still be going up until all the forces of gravity would dominate and change the direction of the rocket. We need to calculate two distances, one from the ground until the point where the fuel is consumed and from that point to the point where the gravity would change the direction.
Given:
a = 86 m/s^2
t = 1.7 s
Solution:
d = vi (t) + 0.5 (a) (t^2)
d = (0) (1.7) + 0.5 (86) (1.7)^2
d = 124.27 m
vf = vi + at
vf = 0 + 86 (1.7)
vf = 146.2 m/s (velocity when the fuel is consumed completely)
Then, we calculate the time it takes until it reaches the maximum height.
vf = vi + at
0 = 146.2 + (-9.8) (t)
t = 14.92 s
Then, the second distance
d= vi (t) + 0.5 (a) (t^2)
d = 146.2 (14.92) + 0.5 (-9.8) (14.92^2)
d = 1090.53 m
Then, we determine the maximum altitude:
d1 + d2 = 124.27 m + 1090.53 m = 1214.8 m</span>
60 miles / hr
= 60 * 1.6 * 1000 m / 60 * 60 s
= 96000 m / 3600 s
= 26.67 m / s
Answer: I'm pretty sure that this one's just an opinion but I guess 3 meters so you have a chance to notice it and move or 1 meter so that it doesn't hit as hard when it lands.
