(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.

On a perfect fall day, you are hovering at low altitude in a hot-air balloon, accelerated neither upward nor downward. The total
Stella [2.4K]

Explanation:

Since the balloon is not accelerating means that the net force on the balloon is zero. This implies that the weight of balloon must be equal to the buoyant force on balloon.

Hence, the buoyant force equals the weight of air displaced by the balloon, also 20,000 N.

Weight of the air displaced = density of air × volume

The density of air at 1 atm pressure and 20º C is 1.2 kg/m³  

the volume V = 20,000/(1.2×9.8) =  1700 m³

How would you determine how much error there is between a vector addition and the real results
chubhunter [2.5K]
Desired operation: A + B = C; {A,B,C) are vector quantities. 

<span>Issue: {A,B} contain error (measurement or otherwise) </span>

<span>Objective: estimate the error in the vector sum. </span>

<span>Let A = u + du; where u is the nominal value of A and du is the error in A </span>
<span>Let B = v + dv; where v is the nominal value of B and dv is the error in B </span>
<span>Let C = w + dw; where w is the nominal value of C and dw is the error in C [the objective] </span>

<span>C = A + B </span>

<span>w + dw = (u + du) + (v + dv) </span>

<span>w + dw = (u + v) + (du + dv) </span>

<span>w = u+v; dw = du + dv </span>

<span>The error associated with w is the vector sum of the errors associated with the measured quantities (u,v)</span>
