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.
Ummm i am not going to be able say i am high
Assuming you want it to be as small and lightweight as possible :
Cut a solid box roughly twice as big as the pringle. Put the pringle inside the box, and fill the remaining space with cotton, that will cushion the impacts. Be sure to apply the mention <em>FRAGILE</em> to the box, so that they'll take care of it properly.
