If the runner ends where she started, then her total displacement is \Delta x=0\,\mathrm m, which means her average velocity will be

\bar v=\dfrac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{0\,\mathrm m}{4.0\,\mathrm{min}\cdot\frac{60\,\mathrm s}{1\,\mathrm{min}}=0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

The total distance she traversed, however, was \Delta d=800\,\mathrm m, which gives her an average speed of

\bar s=\dfrac{\Delta d}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{800\,\mathrm m}{4.0\,\mathrm{min}\cdot\frac{60\,\mathrm s}{1\,\mathrm{min}}=3.3\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

A rocket moves upward from rest with an acceleration of 40 m/s2 for 5 seconds. It then runs out of fuel and continues to move up
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Maximum height of rocket  = 2538.74 m

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

For first 5 seconds

          s = 0 x 5 + 0.5 x 40 x 5² = 500 m

Now let us find out time after 5 seconds rocket move upward.

We have the equation of motion v = u + at

After 5 seconds velocity of rocket

         v = 0 + 40 x 5 = 200 m/s

After 5 seconds the velocity reduces 9.8m/s per second due to gravity.

Time of flying after 5 seconds

          t=\frac{200}{9.81}=20.38s

Distance traveled in this 20.38 s

          s = 200 x 20.38 - 0.5 x 9.81 x 20.38² = 2038.74 m

Maximum height of rocket = 500 +2038.74 = 2538.74 m
