A rocket blasts off vertically from rest on the launch pad with a constant upward acceleration of 2.30 m/s2. At 20.0 s after bla

stoff, the engines suddenly fail, and the rocket begins free fall. which means that the force they produce instantly stops.(a) How high above the launch pad will the rocket eventually go?(b) Find the rocket's velocity at its highest point.(c) Find the magnitude of the rocket's acceleration at its highest point.

Answer:

Explanation:

v = u +at

u = 0

a = 2.3 m /s²

t = 20 s

v = 2.3 x 20

= 46 m /s

Distance covered under acceleration of 2.3 m/s²

s = ut + 1/2 at²

= 0 + .5 x 2.3 x 20²

= 460 m

After that it moves under free fall ie g acts on it downwards .

v² = u² - 2gh , h is height moved by it under free fall

0 = 46² - 2 x 9.8 h

h = 107.96 m

Total height attained

= 460 + 107.96

= 567.96 m

b ) At its highest point ,it stops so  its velocity = 0

c ) rocket's acceleration at its highest point = g = 9.8 downwards .

At highest  point , it is undergoing free fall so its acceleration  = g

Two astronauts are playing catch in a zero gravitational field. Astronaut 1 of mass m1 is initially moving to the right with spe
Ede4ka [16]

The final velocity (v_1_f) of the first astronaut will be greater than the <em>final velocity</em> of the second astronaut (v_2_f) to ensure that the total initial momentum of both astronauts is equal to the total final momentum of both astronauts <em>after throwing the ball</em>.

The given parameters;

  • Mass of the first astronaut, = m₁
  • Mass of the second astronaut, = m₂
  • Initial velocity of the first astronaut, = v₁
  • Initial velocity of the second astronaut, = v₂ > v₁
  • Mass of the ball, = m
  • Speed of the ball, = u
  • Final velocity of the first astronaut, = v_f_1
  • Final velocity of the second astronaut, = v_f_2

The final velocity of the first astronaut relative to the second astronaut after throwing the ball is determined by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum.

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = m_2v_2_f + m_1v_1_f

if v₂ > v₁, then v_1_f > v_2_f, to conserve the linear momentum.

Thus, the final velocity (v_1_f) of the first astronaut will be greater than the <em>final velocity</em> of the second astronaut (v_2_f) to ensure that the total initial momentum of both astronauts is equal to the total final momentum of both astronauts after throwing the ball.
