A toy rocket is launched vertically from ground level (y = 0.00 m), at time t = 0.00 s. The rocket engine provides constant upwa

rd acceleration during the burn phase. At the instant of engine burnout, the rocket has risen to 78 m and acquired a velocity of 40 m/s. The rocket continues to rise in unpowered flight, reaches maximum height, and falls back to the ground with negligible air resistance. The speed of the rocket upon impact on the ground is closest to

Answer:

velocity of rocket at the time of impact is 48.28 m/s

Explanation:

given,

rise of the rocket = 78 m

Velocity acquires by the rocket = 40 m/s

final velocity  = 0 m/s

v = u + gt

0 = 40 - 9.81 × t

t = 4.08 s

now, calculation of displacement

s = u t + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

s = 30\times 4.08 - \dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 4.08^2

  = 40.8 m

total height = 40.8 + 78 = 118.8 m

velocity = \sqrt{2gh} = \sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 118.8 }

v = 48.28 m/s

velocity of rocket at the time of impact is 48.28 m/s

You see lightning and 30 seconds later you hear thunder. how far away is the thunderstorm? take the speed of sound to be 339 m/s
Jobisdone [24]
Let the observer be 'd' distance away from the thunderstorm and let light take 't' time to reach the observer
Since the speed of sound and light remains constant in a particular medium, we can use
      Speed = Distance/Time

For light,
   3 x 10^8 = d/t
                t = d/(3 x 10^8)   -1 

For sound,
           339 = d/(t + 30)       -2

Putting value from 1 in 2.
               d = 10^4 m(approx)

A train has a length of 81.1 m and starts from rest with a constant acceleration at time t = 0 s. At this instant, a car just re
arlik [135]

Answer: a) vcar= 7 m/s ; b) a train= 0.65 m/s^2

Explanation: By using the kinematic equation for the car and the train we can determine the above values of the car velocity and the acceletarion of the train, respectively.

We have for the car

distance = v car* t, considering the length of train (81.1 m) travel by the car during the first 11.6 s

the v car =  distance/time= 81.1 m/11.6s= 7 m/s

In order to calculate the acceleration we have to use the kinematic equation for the train from the rest

distance train = (a* t^2)/2

distance train : distance travel by the car at constant speed

so distance train= (vcar*36.35)m=421 m

the a traiin= (2* 421 m)/(36s)^2=0.65 m/s^2
