Before the engines fail (0\le t\le3.00\,\rm s), the rocket's horizontal and vertical position in the air are

x=\left(103\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos53.0^\circ\,t+\dfrac12\left(32.0\,\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\cos53.0^\circ t^2

y=\left(103\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin53.0^\circ\,t+\dfrac12\left(32.0\,\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\sin53.0^\circ t^2

and its velocity vector has components

v_x=\left(103\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\cos53.0^\circ+\left(32.0\,\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\cos53.0^\circ t

v_y=\left(103\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\sin53.0^\circ+\left(32.0\,\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\sin53.0^\circ t

After t=3.00\,\rm s, its position is

x=273\,\rm m

y=362\,\rm m

and the rocket's velocity vector has horizontal and vertical components

v_x=120\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}

v_y=159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}

After the engine failure (t>3.00\,\rm s), the rocket is in freefall and its position is given by

x=273\,\mathrm m+\left(120\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t

y=362\,\mathrm m+\left(159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2

and its velocity vector's components are

v_x=120\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}

v_y=159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}-gt

where we take g=9.80\,\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}.

a. The maximum altitude occurs at the point during which v_y=0:

159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}-gt=0\implies t=16.2\,\rm s

At this point, the rocket has an altitude of

362\,\mathrm m+\left(159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(16.2\,\rm s)-\dfrac g2(16.2\,\rm s)^2=1650\,\rm m

b. The rocket will eventually fall to the ground at some point after its engines fail. We solve y=0 for t, then add 3 seconds to this time:

362\,\mathrm m+\left(159\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2=0\implies t=34.6\,\rm s

So the rocket stays in the air for a total of 37.6\,\rm s.

c. After the engine failure, the rocket traveled for about 34.6 seconds, so we evalute x for this time t:

273\,\mathrm m+\left(120\,\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(34.6\,\rm s)=4410\,\rm m

During which phase of the moon do neap tides occur?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

First Quarter and Third Quarter.

Explanation:

Tides are formed as a consequence of the differentiation of gravity due to the Moon across to the Earth sphere.

Since gravity variates with the distance:

F = G\frac{m1\cdot m2}{r^{2}} (1)

Where m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects that are interacting and r is the distance between them.

For example, seeing the image below, point A is closer to the Moon than point b, and at the same time the center of mass of the Earth will feel more attracted to the Moon than point B. Therefore, that creates a tidal bulge in point A and point B.

When the Sun and the Moon are alight with respect to the Earth, then the Sun tidal force contributes to the tidal force of the Moon over the Earth. That makes the high tides even higher (spring tides).

               

However, when the Sun is not in the same line than the Moon (the Moon is at 90° with respect to the Sun), then the low tides are higher and the high tides are lower. That scenario is known as neap tides.

           

Therefore, that happens when the Moon is at First Quarter and Third Quarter.

A mass of 0.5 kg hangs motionless from a vertical spring whose length is 1.10 m and whose unstretched length is 0.50 m. Next the
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The maximum length during the motion is L_{max} = 1.45m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

           The mass  is  m =0.5 kg

            The vertical spring  length is  L = 1.10m

            The unstretched  length is  L_{un} = 1.30m

          The initial speed is v_i = 1.3m/s

          The new length of the spring L_{new} =  1.30 m

The spring constant k is mathematically represented as

                           k = -\frac{F}{y}

Where F is the force applied  = m * g = 0.5 * 9.8=4.9N

           y is the difference in weight which is   =1.10-0.50=0.6m

The negative sign is because the displacement of the spring (i.e its extension occurs against the force F)

    Now  substituting values accordingly

                    k =  \frac{4.9}{0.6}

                       = 8.17 N/m

The  elastic potential energy is given as E_{PE} = \frac{1}{2} k D^2

  where D is this the is the displacement  

Since Energy is conserved the total elastic potential energy would be

             E_T = initial  \ elastic\ potential \ energy + kinetic \ energy

            E_T = \frac{1}{2} k D_{max}^2 =   \frac{1}{2} k D^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Substituting value accordingly

                \frac{1}{2} *8.17 *D_{max}^2 =\frac{1}{2} * 8.17*(1.30 - 0.50)^2 + \frac{1}{2} * 0.5 *1.30^2

                4.085 * D_{max}^2 = 3.69

                 D^2_{max} = 0.9033

                D_{max} = 0.950m

So to obtain total length we would add the unstretched length

 So we have

                  L_{max} = 0.950 + 0.5 = 1.45m

A ball is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 13 m/s. Using the approximate value of
dem82 [27]

Answer:

v=v0 - gt

Explanation:

The equation for velocity is

v=v0 - gt

where v0=14m/s, g=10m/s^2.

in 1 second:

v=14-10=4m/s

it is positive so direction is upwards

in 2 seconds:

v=14-20=-6m/s

it is negative so direction is downwards
