A rocket moves upward, starting from rest with an acceleration of 25.4 m/s^2 for 3.39 s. It runs out of fuel at the end of the 3

.39 s, but does not stop. How high does it rise above the ground? Answer in units of m.

Explanation:

Initial speed of the rocket, u = 0

Acceleration of the rocket, a=25.4\ m/s^2

Time taken, t = 3.39 s

Let v is the final velocity of the rocket when it runs out of fuels. Using the equation of kinematics as :

v=u+at

v=25.4\times 3.39=86.10\ m/s    

Let x is the initial position of the rocket. Using third equation of kinematics as :

v^2=u^2+2ax_o

x_o=\dfrac{v^2}{2a}

x_o=\dfrac{86.10^2}{2\times 25.4}=145.92\ m  

Let x_o is the position at the maximum height. Again using equation of motion as :

v^2-u^2=2a(x-x_o)

Now a=-g and v and u will interchange

u^2=2g(x-x_o)

x=x_o+\dfrac{u^2}{2g}

x=145.92+\dfrac{(86.10)^2}{2\times 9.8}

x = 524.14 meters

Hence, this is the required solution.

A mass of 5 kg of saturated water vapor at 150 kPa is heated at constant pressure until the temperature reaches 200°C. Calculate
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The work done by the steam is 213 kJ.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 5 kg

Pressure = 150 kPa

Temperature = 200°C

We need to calculate the specific volume

Using formula of work done

W=Pm\DeltaV

W=Pm(\dfrac{RT_{1}}{P_{atm}}-\dfrac{RT_{2}}{P_{atm}}

W=\dfrac{PmR}{P_{atm}}(T_{2}-T_{1})

Where,R = gas constant

T = temperature

P = pressure

P_{atm}=Atmosphere pressure

m = mass

Put the value into the formula

W=\dfrac{150\times10^{3}\times5\times287.05}{1.01\times10^{5}}\times(473-373)

W=213\ kJ

Hence, The work done by the steam is 213 kJ.

An object is thrown with an initial speed v near the surface of Earth. Assume that air resistance is negligible and the gravitat
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

E. downward and constant

Explanation:

Freefall is a special case of motion with constant acceleration because the acceleration due to gravity is always constant and downward. This is true even when an object is thrown upward or has zero velocity.

For example, when a ball is thrown up in the air, the ball's velocity is initially upward. Since gravity pulls the object toward the earth with a constant acceleration ggg, the magnitude of velocity decreases as the ball approaches maximum height. At the highest point in its trajectory, the ball has zero velocity, and the magnitude of velocity increases again as the ball falls back toward the earth.
