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.

The multi-link mechanism in the Variable Compression Turbo Engine _____, thus varying the compression ratio.
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

A. Adjusts how far down the piston travels

Explanation:

This type of engine changes the possition of the piston in order to modify the compression chamber volume and therefore the compression ratio of the engine. The volume of the chamber is proportional to the run of the piston (how far down the piston travels)

This engine is used to achive the optimal compression rate in each individual stage.

How do soaring birds utilize convection? A : They use the warm air to stay warm.
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Option B. They use thermal updrafts to stay aloft

Explanation:

The sunlight warms the surface of the earth during noon and morning time and when this warming of the Earth's surface is not evenly done or uniform then this gives rise to the thermals. These are the rising air columns and rises when the air nearest to the earth heats up.

This is how some birds like vultures make use of the thermal updrafts to maintain flight.

A 10 kg gun recoils with a speed of 0.1 m/s after it fires a 0.001 kg bullet. What is the speed of the bullet?
Kitty [74]

As we know that here gun + bullet system is isolated from all other external force system

so here the momentum of system is always conserved

so we will say

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

here we know that

v_{1i} = v_{2i} = 0

m_1 = 10 kg

m_2 = 0.001kg

v_{1f} = 0.1 m/s

now we will have

0 + 0 = 10(0.1) + 0.001v_{2f}

by solving above equation we will have

v_{2f} = 1000 m/s
