Robert has just bought a new model roket, and is trying to measure its flight characteristics. The rocket engine package claims

that it will maintain a constant thrust of 11.4 N until the engine is used up. Robert launches the rocket on a windless day, so that it travels straight up, and uses his laser range-finder to measure that the height of the rocket when the engine cuts off is 19.0 m. He also measures the rocket's peak height, which is 23.5 m. If the rocket has a mass of 0.613 kg, how much work is done by the drag force on the rocket during its ascent?

At the peak of its flight ALL the energy given to the rocket is potential energy (its velocity is zero) and that is calculated as mgh So Energy given to rocket = mgh Energy expended by engine = F x D (D= height where engine stops) Energy 'lost' to drag is the difference between the two values. please if this helped mark it as the brainiest answer.

4. A cinder block is sitting on a platform 20 m high. It has a mass of 4 kg. The block has energy. Calculate it.
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the block is at rest in an elevated position, we can assume that it only has potential energy.

U=mgh is the formula for potential energy where U=potential energy, m= mass, g=acceleration due to gravity, and h=height.

Plug in known variables....

U=4kg*9.8m/s^2*20m

U=784 joules of potential energy or letter A.
