A rocket accelerates by burning its onboard fuel, so its mass decreases with time. Suppose the initial mass of the rocket at lif

toff (including its fuel) is m, the fuel is consumed at rate r, and the exhaust gases are ejected with constant velocity ve (relative to the rocket). A model for the velocity of the rocket at time t is given by the equation:
v(t)=−gt−velnm−rtm


Where g is the acceleration due to gravity and t is not too large?If g=9.8m/s2, m=29,000kg, r=170kg/s, and ve=2,900m/s.

What would the height of the rocket be one minute after liftoff?

Answer:

Height of the rocket be one minute after liftoff is 40.1382 km.

Explanation:

v(t)=-gt-v_e\times \ln \frac{m-rt}{m}

v = velocity of rocket at time t

g = Acceleration due to gravity =9.8 m/s^2

v_e = Constant velocity relative to the rocket = 2,900m/s.

m = Initial mass of the rocket at liftoff = 29000 kg

r = Rate at which fuel is consumed = 170 kg/s

Velocity of the rocket after 1 minute of the liftoff =v

t = 1 minute = 60 seconds'

Substituting all the given values in in the given equation:

v(60)=-9.8 m/s^2\times 60 s-2,900m/s\times \ln (\frac{29,000 kg-170 kg/s\times 60 s}{2,9000 kg})

v(60) = 668.97 m/s

Height of the rocket = h

Velocity=\frac{Displacement}{time}

668.97 m/s=\frac{h}{60 s}

h=668.97 m/s\times 60 s=40,138.2 m = 40.1382 km

Height of the rocket be one minute after liftoff is 40.1382 km.

A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward from rest with constant acceleration 58.8m/s2 . The accel
Zanzabum
Split the operation in two parts. Part A) constant acceleration 58.8m/s^2, Part B) free fall.

Part A)
Height reached, y = a*[t^2] / 2 = 58.8 m/s^2 * [7.00 s]^2 / 2 = 1440.6 m

Now you need the final speed to use it as initial speed of the next part.

Vf = Vo + at = 0 + 58.8m/s^2 * 7.00 s = 411.6 m/s

Part B) Free fall

Maximum height, y max ==> Vf = 0

Vf = Vo - gt ==> t = [Vo - Vf]/g = 411.6 m/s / 9.8 m/s^2 = 42 s

ymax = yo + Vo*t - g[t^2] / 2

ymax = 1440.6 m + 411.6m/s * 42 s - 9.8m/s^2 * [42s]^2 /2
ymax = 1440.6 m + 17287.2m - 8643.6m = 10084.2 m

Answer: ymax = 10084.2m
