A rocket is fired straight up. It contains two stages (Stage 1 and Stage 2) of solid rocket fuel that are designed to burn for 1

0.0 and 5.00 s, respectively, with no time interval between them. In Stage 1, the rocket fuel provides an upward acceleration of 16.0 m/s^2. In Stage 2, the acceleration is 11.0 m/s2. Neglecting air resistance, calculate the maximum altitude above the surface of Earth of the payload and the time required for it to return to the surface. Assume the acceleration due to gravity is constant.a. Calculate the maximum altitude. (Express your answer to two significant figures.)b. Calculate time required to return to the surface (i.e. the total time of flight). (Express your answer to three significant figures.)

Answer:

a)  y= 3.5 10³ m, b)   t = 64 s

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we use the vertical launch kinematics equation

Stage 1

          y₁ = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ a t²

          y₁ = 0 + 0 + ½ a₁ t²

Let's calculate

         y₁ = ½ 16 10²

         y₁ = 800 m

At the end of this stage it has a speed

        v₁ = vo + a₁ t₁

        v₁ = 0 + 16 10

        v₁ = 160 m / s

Stage 2

        y₂ = y₁ + v₁ (t-t₀) + ½ a₂ (t-t₀)²

        y₂ = 800 + 150 5 + ½ 11 5²

        y₂ = 1092.5 m

Speed ​​is

        v₂ = v₁ + a₂ t

        v₂ = 160 + 11 5

        v₂ = 215 m / s

The rocket continues to follow until the speed reaches zero (v₃ = 0)

         v₃² = v₂² - 2 g y₃

         0 = v₂² - 2g y₃

         y₃ = v₂² / 2g

         y₃ = 215²/2 9.8

         y₃ = 2358.4 m

The total height is

          y = y₃ + y₂

          y = 2358.4 + 1092.5

          y = 3450.9 m

           y= 3.5 10³ m

b) Flight time is the time to go up plus the time to go down

Let's look for the time of stage 3

          v₃ = v₂ - g t₃

          v₃ = 0

          t₃ = v₂ / g

          t₃ = 215 / 9.8

          t₃ = 21.94 s

The time to climb is

          t_{s} = t₁ + t₂ + t₃

          t_{s} = 10+ 5+ 21.94

          t_{s} = 36.94 s

The time to descend from the maximum height is

          y = v₀ t - ½ g t²

When it starts to slow down it's zero

         y = - ½ g t_{b}²

         t_{b}  = √-2y / g

         

        t_{b} = √(- 2 (-3450.9) /9.8)

        t_{b} = 26.54 s

Flight time is the rise time plus the descent date

        t = t_{s} + t_{b}

        t = 36.94 + 26.54

        t =63.84 s

        t = 64 s

A bag containing 0ºC ice is much more effective in absorbing energy than one containing the same amount of 0ºC water.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

No temperature change occurs from heat transfer if ice melts and becomes liquid water (i.e., during a phase change). For example, consider water dripping from icicles melting on a roof warmed by the Sun. Conversely, water freezes in an ice tray cooled by lower-temperature surroundings.

Explanation:

Energy is required to melt a solid because the cohesive bonds between the molecules in the solid must be broken apart such that, in the liquid, the molecules can move around at comparable kinetic energies; thus, there is no rise in temperature. Similarly, energy is needed to vaporize a liquid, because molecules in a liquid interact with each other via attractive forces. There is no temperature change until a phase change is complete. The temperature of a cup of soda initially at 0ºC stays at 0ºC until all the ice has melted. Conversely, energy is released during freezing and condensation, usually in the form of thermal energy. Work is done by cohesive forces when molecules are brought together. The corresponding energy must be given off (dissipated) to allow them to stay together Figure 2.

The energy involved in a phase change depends on two major factors: the number and strength of bonds or force pairs. The number of bonds is proportional to the number of molecules and thus to the mass of the sample. The strength of forces depends on the type of molecules. The heat Q required to change the phase of a sample of mass m is given by

Q = mLf (melting/freezing,

Q = mLv (vaporization/condensation),

where the latent heat of fusion, Lf, and latent heat of vaporization, Lv, are material constants that are determined experimentally.

A bicycle pump contains 200 cm3 of air and is connected to a bicycle tyre. The volume of the tyre is 800 cm3. The pressure of th
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The total volume of the air is 1000 cubic centimeters.

Explanation:

Since the bicycle pump and the bicycle tyre have the same pressure, then the total volume of the air is the sum of the volume of each element, then we translate this into the following artihmetical expression:

V = 200\,cm^{3}+800\,cm^{3}

V = 1000\,cm^{3}

The total volume of the air is 1000 cubic centimeters.

What force must be exerted on the master cylinder of a hydraulic lift to support the weight of a 2000-kg car (a large car) resti
Nataliya [291]

Archimedes principle states that

 

F1 / A1 = F2 / A2

F2 = (A2 / A1) * F1

 

Also, formula for the force is F = mg. Formula for the area of the cylinder is A = πr^2, therefore we get

 

F2 = (πr2^2 / πr1^2) * mg

 

Since the diameter of the cylinders are 2 cm and 24 cm, r1 = 12 and r2 = 1.

 

Substituting the values to the derived equation, we get

 

F2 = (π 1^2 / π 12^2) * 2400 * 9.8

F2 = 163.3333 N
