A rocket ship is accelerated by the SRB and the main engines for 2.0 minutes and the main engines for 8.5 minutes after the launch. The acceleration of the ship during the first 2.0 minutes is 11 m/s² (D).
A rocket ship has several engines and thrusters. We can divide its initial movement into 2 parts:
- From t = 0 min to t = 2.0 min, the SRB and the main engines act together and the speed goes from 0 m/s (rest) to 1341 m/s.
- From t = 2.0 min to t = 8.5 min, the main engines alone accelerate the ship form 1341 m/s to 7600 m/s.
We want to know the acceleration in the first part (first 2.0 minutes). We need to consider that:
- The speed increases from 0 m/s to 1341 m/s.
- The time elpased is 2.0 min.
- 1 min = 60 s.
The acceleration of the ship during the first 2.0 minutes is:

Answer
given,
F₁ = 15 lb
F₂ = 8 lb
θ₁ = 45°
θ₂ = 25°
Assuming the question's diagram is attached below.
now,
computing the horizontal component of the forces.
F_h = F₁ cos θ₁ - F₂ cos θ₂
F_h = 15 cos 45° - 8 cos 25°
F_h = 3.36 lb
now, vertical component of the forces
F_v = F₁ sin θ₁ + F₂ sin θ₂
F_v = 15 sin 45° + 8 sin 25°
F_v = 13.98 lb
resultant force would be equal to
F = 14.38 lb
the magnitude of resultant force is equal to 14.38 lb
direction of forces
θ = 76.48°
