A rocket is fired from rest from the ground (y = 0) at time t0 = 0 s. As the rocket is burning its fuel, it moves vertically upw
ard with a constant acceleration of 3.25 m/s2 . At t1 = 10.0 s, all the fuel has been used up and the rocket is in free fall. Air resistance can be neglected up until t3 = 17.5 s when the rocket deploys a parachute. At this time the rocket immediately reaches its terminal velocity; this means that the rocket is no longer accelerating.
1a. (10 points) Find the maximum height of the rocket with respect to the ground. How long after being launched does it take for the rocket to reach this height?
1b. (10 points) How long after being launched does it take for the rocket to return to the ground? What is the rocket’s displacement over this entire trip? What is the rocket’s average velocity over this entire trip? What is the rocket’s average speed over this entire trip? What is the rocket’s average acceleration over this entire trip? Be sure to include both magnitude and direction for any vector quantities.
1c. (10 points) What is the rocket’s displacement from ta = 12.0 s to tb = 20.0 secs? What is the rocket’s average velocity from ta to tb? What is the rocket’s average speed from ta to tb? What is the rocket’s average acceleration from ta to tb? Be sure to include both magnitude and direction for any vector quantities.
1d. (10 points) Sketch a y v. t plot for the motion of the rocket. Be sure to label the positions of the rocket at t0 = 0 s, t1 = 10.0 s, t2 (when the rocket is at its highest point), t3 = 17.5 s, and t4 (when the rocket returns to the ground).

Answer:
Explanation:
In order to calculate the angular momentum of the particle you use the following formula:
(1)
r is the position vector respect to the point (0 , 5.0), that is:
r = 0m i + 5.0m j (2)
p is the linear momentum vector and it is given by:
(3)
the direction of p comes from the fat that the particle is moving along the i + j direction.
Then, you use the results of (2) and (3) in the equation (1) and solve for L:
The angular momentum is -30 kgm^2/s ^k
