A rocket is launched from rest and moves in a straight line at 30.0 degrees above the horizontal with an acceleration of 35.0 m/

s2. After 25.0 s of powered flight, the engines shut off and the rocket follows a parabolic path back to earth. Find the time of flight from launch to impact. HINT: Simple projectile motion after engines are shut down.

Answer:

t = 123.59s

Explanation:

For the launch pad section:

Vf = Vo + a*t  where Vo=0.

Vf = 35*25 = 875m/s

The distance traveled during the launch:

d = Vo*t+\frac{a*t^2}{2} = 0+\frac{35*25^2}{2} = 10937.5m

Now the projectile motion, we know that its initial speed is the speed calculated previously and the initial height is the y-component of the previously calculated distance.

\Delta Y = Vo*sin(30)*t - \frac{g*t^2}{2}

-d*sin(30) = Vo*sin(30)*t - \frac{g*t^2}{2}  where d= 10937.5m; Vo=875m/s.

Solving for t:

t1 = -11.093s   t2 = 98.59s

So, the total time of flight will be:

t_{total} = t_{launch}+t_{projectile}=25+98.59 = 123.59s

I'm walking 1.6m/s to 7-11 and it started to rain so I sped up to 2.7m/s in 1.2
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = \frac{v_f-v_0}{t} which is the final velocity minus the initial velocity in the numerator, and the change in time in the denominator.  For us:

a=\frac{2.7-1.6}{1.2} so

a = .92 m/s/s (NOT negative because you're speeding up)

If santa slides 5.00 m before reaching the edge, what is his speed as he leaves the roof?
AveGali [126]

Even with no friction, it depends on the slope of the roof. That is, it depends on how much elevation (altitude) he loses during the slide.

Whatever that number is ... call it 'h' ... Santa's speed when he reaches the edge is

Square root of (19.6h) meters per second.

It doesn't matter how much he weighs, or how far he has slud. Only how much altitude he lost on the slope while sliding.

What us the difference between accurate data and reproducible data
Nikolay [14]

It's just in the name! Accurate data is helpful, and correct, but reproducible data is all of that, and is able to be given to other people through different sources! At least, that's what my understanding of them are. Hope it helps!
