A change in speed would have a greater impact on KE than a change in mass would have.

KE is proportional to the SQUARE of the speed.

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Work done by the machine (W) = 500 × 1.5 = 750 J

Work supplied to the machine (W) = 100 × 10 = 1000 J

Here, work supplied to the machine is input work = 1000 J

How do you give an example for finding net force?

Crazy boy [7]

-- 6 people all trying to push a car out of snow

-- a Tug-o-War with 30 people of different sizes pulling on each end of the rope

-- you and your sister both pulling on the same doll (or Transformer)

-- lifting a book up from the table to a high shelf
taking a book down from a high shelf to the table
(one force is you; another force is gravity)

-- grabbing your big dog by his collar and trying to bring him inside

-- three people at the table all grab the ketchup bottle at the same time

A 7600 kg rocket blasts off vertically from the launch pad with a constant upward acceleration of 2.35 m/s2 and feels no appreci

ollegr [7]

Answer:

a) The rocket reaches a maximum height of 737.577 meters.

b) The rocket will come crashing down approximately 17.655 seconds after engine failure.

Explanation:

a) Let suppose that rocket accelerates uniformly in the two stages. First, rocket is accelerates due to engine and second, it is decelerated by gravity.

1st Stage - Engine

Given that initial velocity, acceleration and travelled distance are known, we determine final velocity ( $v$ ), measured in meters per second, by using this kinematic equation:

$v = \sqrt{v_{o}^{2} +2\cdot a\cdot \Delta s}$ (1)

Where:

$a$ - Acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$\Delta s$ - Travelled distance, measured in meters.

$v_{o}$ - Initial velocity, measured in meters per second.

If we know that $v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $a = 2.35\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $\Delta s = 595\,m$ , the final velocity of the rocket is:

$v = \sqrt{\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+2\cdot \left(2.35\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (595\,m)}$

$v\approx 52.882\,\frac{m}{s}$

The time associated with this launch ( $t$ ), measured in seconds, is:

$t = \frac{v-v_{o}}{a}$

$t = \frac{52.882\,\frac{m}{s}-0\,\frac{m}{s}}{2.35\,\frac{m}{s} }$

$t = 22.503\,s$

2nd Stage - Gravity

The rocket reaches its maximum height when final velocity is zero:

$v^{2} = v_{o}^{2} + 2\cdot a\cdot (s-s_{o})$ (2)

Where:

$v_{o}$ - Initial speed, measured in meters per second.

$v$ - Final speed, measured in meters per second.

$a$ - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$s_{o}$ - Initial height, measured in meters.

$s$ - Final height, measured in meters.

If we know that $v_{o} = 52.882\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $v = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $a = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $s_{o} = 595\,m$ , then the maximum height reached by the rocket is:

$v^{2} -v_{o}^{2} = 2\cdot a\cdot (s-s_{o})$

$s-s_{o} = \frac{v^{2}-v_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot a}$

$s = s_{o} + \frac{v^{2}-v_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot a}$

$s = 595\,m + \frac{\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(52.882\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}$

$s = 737.577\,m$

The rocket reaches a maximum height of 737.577 meters.

b) The time needed for the rocket to crash down to the launch pad is determined by the following kinematic equation:

$s = s_{o} + v_{o}\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot a \cdot t^{2}$ (2)

Where:

$s_{o}$ - Initial height, measured in meters.

$s$ - Final height, measured in meters.

$v_{o}$ - Initial speed, measured in meters per second.

$a$ - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

If we know that $s_{o} = 595\,m$ , $v_{o} = 52.882\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $s = 0\,m$ and $a = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , then the time needed by the rocket is:

$0\,m = 595\,m + \left(52.882\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot t^{2}$

$-4.904\cdot t^{2}+52.882\cdot t +595 = 0$

Then, we solve this polynomial by Quadratic Formula:

$t_{1}\approx 17.655\,s$ , $t_{2} \approx -6.872\,s$

Only the first root is solution that is physically reasonable. Hence, the rocket will come crashing down approximately 17.655 seconds after engine failure.
