A model rocket blasts off from the ground, rising straight upward with a constant acceleration that has a magnitude of 86.0 m/s2

for 1.70 seconds, at which point its fuel abruptly runs out. air resistance has no effect on its flight. what maximum altitude (above the ground) will the rocket reach?

<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>

Why do polar compounds tend to have higher melting points than nonpolar compounds
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

The inter-molecular forces holding non-polar compounds together is low compare to that of polar compounds. Therefore, it will take less energy to break the bond for non-polar compounds and vice versa. That is why polar compounds have higher melting points than non-polar compounds.
