A 2.44×104-kg rocket blasts off vertically from the earth's surface with a constant acceleration. During the motion considered i
n the problem, assume that g remains constant. Inside the rocket, a 18.9-N instrument hangs from a wire that can support a maximum tension of 44.1 N .7 How far is the rocket above the earth's surface when it breaks the sound barrier? Find the minimum time for this rocket to reach the sound barrier (330 m/s) without breaking the inside wire. Find the maximum vertical thrust of the rocket engines under these conditions.
a) to find the distance to break the sound barrier (v = 330 m / s) we use the kinematic relationship
v² = v₀² + 2 a x
To find the acceleration suppose the rocket does not break the wire that holds the load, so we can use the second Newton law to find the maximum acceleration
The apple also exerts an equal and opposite force on the earth but earth does not move because the mass of apple is very small,due to which the gravitational force produces a large acceleration in it (a=F/m) and we can see the apple falling towards the earth but the mass of earth is very large,the same gravitational .
