Answer:

The maximum height reached by the rocket is 486.53 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the rocket, u = 0

acceleration of the rocket, a= 20 m/s²

duration of the rocket first motion, t = 4 s

The distance traveled by the rocket before its thrust failed

h₁ = ut + ¹/₂at²

h₁ = 0 + ¹/₂ x 20 x 4²

h₁ = 160 m

The second distance moved by the rocket is calculated as follows;

The velocity of the rocket before its thrust failed;

v = u + at

v = 0 +  20 x 4

v = 80 m/s

This becomes the initial velocity for the second stage

At maximum height, the final velocity = 0

v_f^0 = v_i^2 - 2gh_2\\\\0 = (80)^2 - (2 \times 9.8)h_2\\\\0 = 6400 - 19.6h_2\\\\19.6h_2 = 6400\\\\h_2 = \frac{6400}{19.6} \\\\h_2 = 326.53 \ m

The maximum height reached by the rocket = h₁ + h₂

                                                                          = 160 + 326.53

                                                                          = 486.53 m

14.A 90 kg quarterback gets tackled by being hit by a 120 kg lineman backwards
quester [9]

The acceleration of the quarterback and the lineman is 5.55m/s² and 4.16m/s² respectively in the same direction.

As, we know, the 120 Kg lineman is moving with a force of 500N.

His net acceleration will be in the same direction as his motion.

It is already known that, If M is the mass of the body and a is the acceleration of the body, then the force F on the body can be calculated by using the formula,

F = Ma.

The weight of the quarterback is 90 Kg. He is being hit by a force of 500N.

So, the acceleration can be calculated using the formula,

500N = 90kg x a

a = 5.55 m/s².

Now, the weight if the lineman is 120kg, the force applied by him is 500N.

So, from the formula, his acceleration A will be,

500N = 120Kg x A

A = 4.16 m/s².

both of them will have acceleration in the same direction,
