(20) A rocket is launched vertically. At time t = 0 seconds, the rocket’s engine shuts down. At the time, the rocket has reached

an altitude of 500m and is rising at a velocity of 125 m/s. Gravity then takes over. The height of the rocket as a function of time is h(t)=-9.8/2 t^2+125t+500,t>0. Using your function file from HW2A: Generate a plot of height (vertical axis) vs. time (horizontal axis) from 0 to 30 seconds. Include proper axis labels. Find the maximum height and the time at which it occurs: Analytically, showing your steps and equations. This part should be done entirely in the write-up: no coding Using the data cursor on the plot. Using the MAX function on your data from part (a) Using FMINSEARCH on your m file Comment on the differences between the methods. How closely does each method match the "true" (analytical) value? Find the time when the rocket hits the ground: Analytically, showing your equations. This part should be done entirely in the write-up: no coding Using the data cursor on the plot. Using FZERO on your m file Comment on the differences between the methods in each of part (B) and (C). How closely does each method match the "true" (analytical) value? Use a quantitative comparison to make your argument.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

h(t) = -9.8t² / 2 + 125t + 500

for t > 0.

At t = 0, the rocket is at height h = 500m, at a velocity of Vo = 125m/s.

We want to find the maximum height reached by rocket

Using mathematics maxima and minima

let find the turning point when dh/dt = 0

dh/dt = -9.8t + 125

dh / dt = 0 = -9.8t + 125

9.8t = 125

t = 125 / 9.8

t = 12.76s

Let find the turning point to know if this time t = 12.76 is maximum or minimum point

Let find d²h / dt²

d²h / dt² = -9.8

Since, d²h/dt² < 0, then, at t = 12.76s is the maximum points.

Then, the maximum height reached is

h =  -9.8t² / 2 + 125t + 500

h =  -9.8(12.76)² / 2 + 125(12.76) + 500

h = -797.80 + 1595 + 500

h = 1297.2 m

The maximum height reached is 1297.2 m

From the attachment, the maximum height is 1297.2m at t = 12.76sec.

Comment, the result are the same for both the analysis aspect and the graphical aspect.

If a displacement vector has a negative x component and a positive y component,
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The direction will be NE i.e North east.

Explanation:

From the question, it will be travelling in North east direction because the the negative X components in vector is in horizontal direction which is the Eastern direction when using the four cardinal points and the Y components, the positive is in North direction if you use the four cardinal points. Therefore, the vector with both X components and Y components will be travelling in Northeast direction.
