Assuming a vertical trajectory with no drag, derive the applicable form of the rocket equation for this application

Physics
1 answer:
VARVARA [1.3K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The vertical trajectory is governed by Ordinary Differential Equation.

Time derivatives of each state variables.

d(d)/dt = v, d(m)/dt = -d(m-fuel)/dt, d(v)/dt = F/m.

Where V is velocity positive upwards, t is time, m is mass, m-fuel is fuel mass, F is Total force, positive upwards.

Therefore,

F = -mg - D + T, If V is positive and

F = -mg + D - T, If T is negative.

D is drag and the questions gave it as zero.

Explanation:

The two sign cases in derivative equations above are required because F is defined positive up, so the drag D and thrust T can subtract or add to F depending in the sign of V . In contrast, the gravity force contribution mg is always negative. In general, F will be some function of time, and may also depend on the characteristics of the particular rocket. For example, the T component of F will become zero after all the fuel is expended, after which point the rocket will be ballistic, with only the gravity force and the aerodynamic drag force being p

How can pressure impact the alignment of minerals within the rock
Sloan [31]
Metamorphism occurs because some minerals are stable only under certain conditions of pressure and temperature. When pressure and temperature change, chemical reactions occur to cause the minerals in the rock to change to an assemblage that is stable at the new pressure and temperature conditions.

What is the relationship between the voltage across the energy
STatiana [176]
In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents through each component. If two or more components are connected in parallel they have the same potential difference ( voltage) across their ends.

name three sources of energy that can be absorbed by atoms to produce light. which source is used in bioluminescent organisms?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Explanation:

Heat energy

Solar energy

Electrical energy

Energy is the ability to do work. There are different forms of energy and they can be converted from one form to the other.

Heat energy is due to the changes in temperature of a body. When a body is heated, the electrons excite and gives off radiant energy which are visible to human eye. We often see red light when a body is heated.

Solar energy can be absorbed by organisms to produce light. Such an example is bioluminescence in some organisms. During the day, they trap solar energy that they glow with at night.

Electrical energy can also be used to produce light. We often see this in lightning and electrical bulbs in a circuit.
