A rocket with a mass of 62,000 kg (including fuel) is burning fuel at the rate of 150 kg/s and the speed of the exhaust gases is

6,000 m/s. If the rocket is fired vertically upward from the surface of the Earth, determine its height after 744 kg of its total fuel load has been consumed. Since the mass of fuel consumed is small compared to the total mass of the rocket, you can consider the mass of the rocket to be constant for the time interval of interest.

Answer:

h≅ 58 m

Explanation:

GIVEN:

mass of rocket M= 62,000 kg

fuel consumption rate =  150 kg/s

velocity of exhaust gases v= 6000 m/s

Now thrust = rate of fuel consumption×velocity of exhaust gases

=6000 × 150 = 900000 N

now to need calculate time t = amount of fuel consumed÷ rate

= 744/150= 4.96 sec

applying newton's law

M×a= thrust - Mg

62000 a=900000- 62000×9.8

acceleration a= 4.71 m/s^2

its height after 744 kg of its total fuel load has been consumed

h= \frac{1}{2}at^2

h= \frac{1}{2}4.71\times4.96^2

h= 58.012 m

h≅ 58 m

natta225 [31]

Answer:

296 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram.  The box has two forces on it: tension up and weight down.

Apply Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

T − mg = ma

T = m (g + a)

Given m = 196 N / 9.8 m/s² = 20 kg, and a = +5 m/s²:

T = (20 kg) (9.8 m/s² + 5 m/s²)

T = 296 N

Which of the following is correct for speed?
Olin [163]

Answer:

Speed is a "scalar" quantity

(C) is the correct answer

An object could travel at 10 m/s to some point and then return to the origin at 10 m/s for an average speed of 10 m/s, however it's displacement over that time would be zero for a net velocity of zero.

The coefficients of friction between the load and the flatbed trailershown are μs = 0.40 and μk = 0.30. Knowing that the speed o
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

50.97 m

Explanation:

m = Mass of truck

\mu_s = Coefficient of static friction = 0.4

v = Final velocity = 0

u = Initial velocity = 72 km/h = \dfrac{72}{3.6}=20\ \text{m/s}

s = Displacement

Force applied

F=ma

Frictional force

f=\mu_s mg

Now these forces act opposite to each other so are equal. This is valid for the case when the load does not slide

ma=\mu_s mg\\\Rightarrow a=\mu_s g\\\Rightarrow a=0.4\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow a=3.924\ \text{m/s}^2

Since the obect will be decelerating the acceleration will be -3.924\ \text{m/s}^2

From the kinematic equations we have

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{0^2-20^2}{2\times -3.924}\\\Rightarrow s=50.97\ \text{m}

So, the minimum distance at which the car will stop without making the load shift is 50.97 m.
