A small rocket is fired from a launch pad 10 m above the ground with an initial velocity left angle 250 comma 450 comma 500 righ

t angle ​m/s. A cross wind blowing to the north produces an acceleration of the rocket of 2.5 m divided by s squared. Assume the​ x-axis points​ east, the​ y-axis points​ north, the positive​ z-axis is vertical​ (opposite g), and the ground is horizontal. Answer parts a through d.

Let \vec r(t),\vec v(t),\vec a(t) denote the rocket's position, velocity, and acceleration vectors at time t.

We're given its initial position

\vec r(0)=\langle0,0,10\rangle\,\mathrm m

and velocity

\vec v(0)=\langle250,450,500\rangle\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

Immediately after launch, the rocket is subject to gravity, so its acceleration is

\vec a(t)=\langle0,2.5,-g\rangle\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}

where g=9.8\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}.

a. We can obtain the velocity and position vectors by respectively integrating the acceleration and velocity functions. By the fundamental theorem of calculus,

\vec v(t)=\left(\vec v(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^t\vec a(u)\,\mathrm du\right)\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

\vec v(t)=\left(\langle250,450,500\rangle+\langle0,2.5u,-gu\rangle\bigg|_0^t\right)\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

(the integral of 0 is a constant, but it ultimately doesn't matter in this case)

\boxed{\vec v(t)=\langle250,450+2.5t,500-gt\rangle\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}}

and

\vec r(t)=\left(\vec r(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^t\vec v(u)\,\mathrm du\right)\,\rm m

\vec r(t)=\left(\langle0,0,10\rangle+\left\langle250u,450u+1.25u^2,500u-\dfrac g2u^2\right\rangle\bigg|_0^t\right)\,\rm m

\boxed{\vec r(t)=\left\langle250t,450t+1.25t^2,10+500t-\dfrac g2t^2\right\rangle\,\rm m}

b. The rocket stays in the air for as long as it takes until z=0, where z is the z-component of the position vector.

10+500t-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t\approx102\,\rm s

The range of the rocket is the distance between the rocket's final position and the origin (0, 0, 0):

\boxed{\|\vec r(102\,\mathrm s)\|\approx64,233\,\rm m}

c. The rocket reaches its maximum height when its vertical velocity (the z-component) is 0, at which point we have

-\left(500\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)^2=-2g(z_{\rm max}-10\,\mathrm m)

\implies\boxed{z_{\rm max}=125,010\,\rm m}

Factor completely and find the roots of the following . X^2-6x+8=0
LiRa [457]

Answer:

x =2, x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 6x + 8 = 0

(x - 2)(x - 4) = 0

x - 2 = 0; x = 2

x - 4 = 0; x = 4

Which best explains why state governments are better able to focus on the needs of their citizens than the federal
sesenic [268]

Answer:

The state governments are able to focus entirely on the citizens that live there. The federal government has to deal with wide spread, national issues, and would not provide the care and attention that the smaller state governments can.
