A rocket is fired straight upward, starting from rest with an acceleration of 25.0 m/s^2. It runs out of fuel at the end of 4.00

s and continues to coast upward, reaching a maximum height before falling back to earth. (a) Find the rocket height and velocity when it runs out of fuel. (b) Find the maximum height the rocket reaches. (c) Find the velocity the instant before the rocket crashes into the ground. (d) Find the total elapsed time from launch to ground impact.

Answer:

a) 200m, 100m/s

b) 710.20m

c) -117.98 m/s

d) 26.24 s

Explanation:

To solve this  we have to use the formulas corresponding to a uniformly accelerated motion problem:

V=Vo+a*t (1)

X=Xo+Vo*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\ (2)

V^2=Vo^2+2*a*X (3)

where:

Vo is initial velocity

Xo=intial position

V=final velocity

X=displacement

a)

X=0+0*4+\frac{1}{2}*25*4^2

the intial position is zero because is lauched from the ground and the intial velocitiy is zero because it started from rest.

X=200m

V=0+25*4

V=100m/s

b)

The intial velocity is 100m/s we know that because question (a) the acceleration is -9.8\frac{m}{s^2} because it is going downward.

0=100^2+2*(-9.8)*X\\X=510.20\\totalheight=200+510.20=710.20m

c)

In order to find the velocity when it crashes, we can use the formula (3).

the initial velocity is 0 because in that moment is starting to fall.

V^2=0^2+2*(-9.8)*(710.20)\\V=-117.98 m/s

the minus sign means that the object is going down.

d)

We can find the total amount of time adding the first 4 second and the time it takes to going down.

to calculate the time we can use the formula (2) setting the reference at 200m:

-200=0+100*t+\frac{1}{2}*(-9.8)*t^2

solving this we have: time taken= 22.24 seconds

total time is:

total=22.24+4=26.24 seconds.

A car is traveling at 50 mi/h when the brakes are fully applied, producing a constant deceleration of 38 ft/s2. what is the dist
e-lub [12.9K]

Convert 38 ft/s^2 to mi/h^2. Then we se the conversion factor > 1 mile = 5280 feet and 1 hour = 3600 seconds.

So now we show it > 38  \frac{ft}{s^2}  x  \frac{1mi}{5280ft} x  \frac{(3600s)^2}{(1h)^2} = 93272.27  \frac{mi}{h^2}

Then we have to use the formula of constant acceleration to determine the distance traveled by the car before it ended up stopping.

Which the formula for constant acceleration would be > v_2^2=v_1^2 + 2as

The initial velocity is 50mi/h (v_1=50)

When it stops the final velocity is (v_2=0)

Since the given is deceleration it means the number we had gotten earlier would be a negative so a = -93272.27

Then we substitute the values in....

0^2 = 50^2 + 2(-93272.27)s&#10;&#10;0 = 2500 - 186544.54s&#10;&#10;Isolate S next.&#10;&#10;185644.54s= 2500&#10;&#10;s =  2500/(185644.54)&#10;&#10;s=0.0134&#10;

So we can say the car stopped at 0.0134 miles before it came to a stop but to express the distance traveled in feet we need to use the conversion factor of 1 mile = 5280 feet in otherwards > 0.0134 mi *  \frac{5280ft}{1mi}  = 70.8 ft
So this means that the car traveled in feet 70.8 ft before it came to a stop.
