A rocket in deep space has an empty mass of 150 kg and exhausts the hot gases of burned fuel at 2500 m/s. It is loaded with 600

kg of fuel, which it burns in 30 s. What is the rocket’s speed 10 s, 20 s, and 30 s after launch?

Answer:

v(10\,s) \approx 775.387\,\frac{m}{s}

v(20\,s)\approx 1905.350\,\frac{m}{s}

v(30\,s) \approx 4023.595\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The speed of the rocket is given the Tsiolkovsky's differential equation, whose solution is:

v (t) = v_{o} - v_{ex}\cdot \ln \frac{m}{m_{o}}

Where:

v_{o} - Initial speed of the rocket, in m/s.

v_{ex} - Exhaust gas speed, in m/s.

m_{o} - Initial total mass of the rocket, in kg.

m - Current total mass of the rocket, in kg.

Let assume that fuel is burned linearly. So that,

m(t) = m_{o} + r\cdot t

The initial total mass of the rocket is:

m_{o} = 750\,kg

The fuel consumption rate is:

r = -\frac{600\,kg}{30\,s}

r = -20\,\frac{kg}{s}

The function for the current total mass of the rocket is:

m(t) = 750\,kg - (20\,\frac{kg}{s} )\cdot t

The speed function of the rocket is:

v(t) = - 2500\,\frac{m}{s}\cdot \ln \frac{750\,kg -(20\,\frac{kg}{s} )\cdot t}{750\,kg}

The speed of the rocket at given instants are:

v(10\,s) \approx 775.387\,\frac{m}{s}

v(20\,s)\approx 1905.350\,\frac{m}{s}

v(30\,s) \approx 4023.595\,\frac{m}{s}

You move a 25 N object 5 meters. How much work did you do ?
olga55 [171]
The answer is 125 Joules

The first thing to take note of is the work equation: W=F×D

Since we already have our force and our distance that will help make this problem easier.

So, W=25*5

W=125

Therefore, our answer is 125 Joules since work is measured in joules

Hope this helped!! :)

A tray is moved horizontally back and forth in simple harmonic motion at a frequency of f = 2.07 Hz. On this tray is an empty cu
Anettt [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Frequency of SHM is f=2.07\ Hz

Amplitude of SHM is A=3.13\ cm

Cup begins to slip when it overcomes the friction force

Friction force F_s=\mu mg

Applied force F=ma

ma=\mu mg

a=\mu g

and maximum acceleration during SHM is

a=A\omega ^2

a=A(2\pi f)^2

a=3.13\times 10^{-2}\times (2\pi 2.07)^2

a=5.296\ m/s^2

\mu =\frac{a}{g}

\mu =\frac{5.296}{9.8}=0.54

Robin Hood wishes to split an arrow already in the bull's-eye of a target 40 m away.
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

5.843 m

Explanation:

suppose that the arrow leave the bow with a horizontal speed , towards he bull's eye.

lets consider that horizontal motion

distance = speed * time

time = 40/ 37 = 1.081 s

arrow doesnot have a initial vertical velocity component. but it has a vertical motion due to gravity , which may cause a miss of the target.

applying motion equation

(assume g = 10 m/s²)

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}*gt^{2}  \\= 0+\frac{1}{2}*10*1.081^{2}\\= 5.843 m

Arrow misses the target by 5.843m ig the arrow us split horizontally
