A catapult launches a test rocket vertically upward from a well, giving the rocket an initial speed of 80.6 m/s at ground level.

The engines then fire, and the rocket accelerates upward at 3.90 m/s2 until it reaches an altitude of 1040 m. At that point its engines fail, and the rocket goes into free fall, with an acceleration of −9.80 m/s2. (you will need to consider the motion while the engine is operating and the free-fall motion separately.) (a) for what time interval is the rocket in motion above the ground?

solution:

y = v0t + ½at²

1150 = 79t + ½3.9t²

0 = 3.9t² + 158t - 2300

from quadratic equations and eliminating the negative answer

t = (-158 + v158² -4(3.9)(-2300)) / 2(3.9)

t = 11.37 s to engine cut-off

the velocity at that time is

v = v0 + at

v = 79 + 3.9(11.37)

v = 123.3 m/s

it rises for an additional time

v = gt

t = v/g

t = 123.3 / 9.8

t = 12.59 s

gaining more altitude

y = ½vt

y = 123.3(12.59) /2

y = 776 m

for a peak height of

y = 776 + 1150

Answer:

t = 31.52 s, the time until the crash

t = 42 s, time to the motion

Explanation:

We have the following data:

so = 0

vo = 80.6 m/s

a = 3.90 m/s^2

s = 1040 m

replacing in the distance equation we have:

s = so + vo*t + (a*t^2)/2

s = 0 + 80.6*t + (3.9 * t^2)/2 = 1040

clearing t:

t = 10.48 s

v1 = v2o = vo + a*t = 80.6 + (3.9 * 10.48) = 121.472 m/s

s2 = 1040 + 121.472t - (9.8*t^2)/2

0 = 1040 + 121.472t - (9.8*t^2)/2

Clearing t:

t = 31.52 s, the time until the crash

t = 42 s, time to the motion

Relation of Kilometre and mile​
Alja [10]

Answer:

1km = o.621371 mile

Explanation:

1.609 kilometers equal 1 mile. The kilometer is a unit of measurement, as is the mille. However, a mile is longer than a kilometer.

Rock X is released from rest at the top of a cliff that is on Earth. A short time later, Rock Y is released from rest from the s
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

C) True. S increases with time, v₁ = gt and v₂ = g (t-t₀)  we see that for the same t v₁> v₂

Explanation:

You have several statements and we must select which ones are correct. The best way to do this is to raise the problem.

Let's use the vertical launch equation. The positive sign because they indicate that the felt downward is taken as an opponent.

Stone 1

    y₁ = v₀₁ t + ½ g t²

    y₁ = 0 + ½ g t²

Rock2

It comes out a little later, let's say a second later, we can use the same stopwatch

     t ’= (t-t₀)

    y₂ = v₀₂ t ’+ ½ g t’²

    y₂ = 0 + ½ g (t-t₀)²

    y₂ = + ½ g (t-t₀)²

Let's calculate the distance between the two rocks, it should be clear that this equation is valid only for t> = to

    S = y₁ -y₂

    S = ½ g t²– ½ g (t-t₀)²

    S = ½ g [t² - (t²- 2 t to + to²)]  

    S = ½ g (2 t t₀ - t₀²)

    S = ½ g t₀ (2 t -t₀)

This is the separation of the two bodies as time passes, the amount outside the Parentheses is constant.

For t <to.  The rock y has not left and the distance increases

For t> = to.  the ratio (2t/to-1)> 1 therefore the distance increases as time

passes

Now we can analyze the different statements

A) false. The difference in height increases over time

B) False S increases

C) Certain s increases with time, v₁ = gt and V₂ = g (t-t₀) we see that for the same t   v₁> v₂

A silver bar 0.125 meter long is subjected to a temperature change from 200°C to 100°C. What will be the length of the bar after
Delicious77 [7]
\Delta L=  \alpha L_0 (T_f-T_i)

= (18 x 10^-6 /°C)(0.125 m)(100° C - 200 °C)

= -0.00225 m

New length = L + ΔL
= 1.25 m + (-0.00225 m)
= 1.248

A girl rolls a ball up an incline and allows it to re- turn to her. For the angle and ball involved, the acceleration of the bal
zalisa [80]

Answer:

3.28 m

3.28 s

Explanation:

We can adopt a system of reference with an axis along the incline, the origin being at the position of the girl and the positive X axis going up slope.

Then we know that the ball is subject to a constant acceleration of 0.25*g (2.45 m/s^2) pointing down slope. Since the acceleration is constant we can use the equation for constant acceleration:

X(t) = X0 + V0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2

X0 = 0

V0 = 4 m/s

a = -2.45 m/s^2 (because the acceleration is down slope)

Then:

X(t) = 4*t - 1.22*t^2

And the equation for speed is:

V(t) = V0 + a * t

V(t) = 4 - 2.45 * t

If we equate this to zero we can find the moment where it stops and begins rolling down, that will be the highest point:

0 = 4 - 2.45 * t

4 = 2.45 * t

t = 1.63 s

Replacing that time on the position equation:

X(1.63) = 4 * 1.63 - 1.22 * 1.63^2 = 3.28 m

To find the time it will take to return we equate the position equation to zero:

0 = 4 * t - 1.22 * t^2

Since this is a quadratic equation it will have to answers, one will be the moment the ball was released (t = 0), the other will eb the moment when it returns:

0 = t * (4 - 1.22*t)

t1 = 0

0 = 4 - 1.22*t2

1.22 * t2 = 4

t2 = 3.28 s
