Help! PROJECTILE PROBLEM: A 7500-kg rocket blasts off vertically from the launch pad with a constant upward acceleration of 2.25

m/s2 and feels no appreciable air resistance. When it has reached a height of 525 m, its engines suddenly fail so that the only force acting on it is now gravity.
a) What is the maximum height this rocket will reach above the launch pad?
b) How much time after engine failure will elapse before the rocket comes crashing down to the launch pad?

Height at failure, h1 = 525 m, 
upward acceleration, a = 2.25 m/s^2, 
velocity = v m/s, 
<span>
SO, </span>
<span>
v^2 = 2*a*h = 2*2.25*525 = 2362.5 </span>
Now, acceleration, g = 9.8 m/s^2, 
<span>
SO, </span>
<span>
heigt, h1 = v^2/2g = 2362.5 / 2*9.8 = 120.54 meters </span>
Hence, 
<span>
a) </span>
Total height = 525+120.54 = 645.54 meters 

b) 
<span>time, for h1, t = v/g = sqrt(2362.5)/9.8 = 4.96 sec

The percentage of incident light radiation reflected back to space is termed albedo. True or false?
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:True

Explanation:

Albedo is a unit-less, non-dimensional quantity that shows how well a surface reflects solar energy. The value of albedo can vary from 0 to 1, 0 being the black and 1 refers to a white surface. Zero means Surface is a perfect absorber i.e. it absorbs all the incoming rays incidents on it. Albedo 1 means the surface is a perfect reflector.

Albedo usually applies for visible light, even though it may involve some of the infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The average albedo associated with earth surface is 30%

What is all cells in a body that arent formed in a reproductive organ???
vovangra [49]

Explanation:

An organ is made of several types of tissue and therefore several types of cells. For example, the heart contains muscle tissue that contracts to pump blood, fibrous tissue that makes up the heart valves, and special cells that maintain the rate and rhythm of heartbeats.

Julie throws a ball to her friend Sarah. The ball leaves Julie's hand a distance 1.5 meters above the ground with an initial spe
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

1.  V_{x} = V_{0} * cos\alpha ⇒ 16*cos32 ≈ 13.6 m/s (13.56)

2. V_{y} = V_{0} * sin\alpha ⇒ 16* sin32 ≈ 9.4 m/s

3. y_{max} = \frac{v_{0}^2*sin^2\alpha}{2g}= \frac{16^2*sin^232}{2*9.8} (the g (gravity) depends on the country but i'll take the average g which is 9.2m/s^2)

y_{max} ≈ 3.6677+1.5 ≈ 5.2m

4.  x_{max} = \frac{v_{0}^2*sin(2\alpha)}{g}=\frac{16^2*sin(2*32)}{9.8} ≈ 23.5m (23.47)

5. -

answer 4 could be wrong, not certain about that one and i don't know 5

Two balls of equal size are dropped from the same height from the roof of a building. the mass of ball a is twice that of ball b
Sindrei [870]
The mass of ball a is twice the mass of ball b:
m_a = 2 m_b
This means that the initial potential energy of ball a (U_a = m_a gh=2 m_b gh) is twice the potential energy of ball b (U_b = m_b  g h):
U_a = 2 U_b
When the two balls reach the ground, the potential energy of each ball has converted into kinetic energy (since now their altitude is h=0), because the total mechanical energy of each ball must be  conserved. Therefore:
K_a = U_a
K_b = U_b
and so the kinetic energy of ball a must be twice the kinetic energy of ball b:
K_a = 2 K_b
