A 200 kg weather rocket is loaded with 100 kg of fuel and fired straight up. It accelerates upward at 35 m/s2 for 35 s , then ru
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

T = 295.57 s

Explanation:

given,

mass of the rocket = 200 Kg

mass of the fuel = 100 Kg

acceleration = 35 m/s²

time, t = 35 s

time taken by the rocket to hit the ground, = ?

Final speed of the rocket when fuel is empty

using equation of motion

v = u + a t

v = 0 + 35 x 35

v = 1225 m/s

height of the rocket where fuel is empty

v² = u² + 2 a s

1225² = 0 + 2 x 35 x h₁

h₁ = 21437.5 m

After 35 s the rocket will be moving upward till the final velocity becomes zero.

Now, using equation of motion to find the height after 35 s

v² = u² + 2 g h₂

0² = 1225² + 2 x (-9.8) h₂

h₂ = 76562.5 m

total height = h₁ + h₂

          = 76562.5 m + 21437.5 m = 98000 m

now, time taken by before the rocket hit the ground

using equation of motion

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

-13500 = 1225 t -\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times t^2

negative sign is used because the distance travel by the rocket is downward.

4.9 t² - 1225 t - 13500 = 0

t = \dfrac{-(-1225)\pm \sqrt{1225^2 - 4\times 4.9 \times (-13500)}}{2\times 4.9}

t = 260.57 s

neglecting the negative sign

total time the rocket was in air

T = t₁ + t₂

T = 35 + 260.57

T = 295.57 s

Time for which rocket was in air is equal to 295.57 s.

Can anyone help me? (physics)
Masja [62]

Answer:

The initial velocity of the golf is 15.7 m/s.

The direction of the golf is 57°.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Time of flight (T) = 2.7 secs

Range (R) = 23 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =.?

Direction (θ) =.?

T = 2U Sine θ /g

2.7 = 2 × U × Sine θ /9.8

Cross multiply

2.7 × 9.8 = 2 × U × Sine θ

26.46 = 2 × U × Sine θ

Divide both side by 2 × Sine θ

U = 26.46 /2 Sine θ

U = 13.23 / Sine θ ... (1)

R = U² Sine 2θ /g

23 = U² Sine 2θ / 9.8

U = 13.23 / Sine θ

23 = (13.23/ Sine θ)² Sine 2θ / 9.8

23 = (175.0329 / Sine² θ) × Sine 2θ / 9.8

23 = 17.8605/Sine² θ × Sine 2θ

Recall:

Sine 2θ = 2SineθCosθ

23 = 17.8605/ Sine² θ × 2SineθCosθ

23 = 17.8605/ Sine θ × 2Cosθ

23 = 35.721 Cos θ /Sine θ

Cross multiply

23 × Sine θ = 35.721 Cos θ

Divide both side by 23

Sine θ = 35.721 Cos θ /23

Sine θ = 1.5531 × Cos θ

Divide both side by Cos θ

Sine θ /Cos θ = 1.5531

Recall:

Sine θ /Cos θ = Tan θ

Sine θ /Cos θ = 1.5531

Tan θ = 1.5531

Take the inverse of Tan

θ = Tan¯¹ (1.5531)

θ = 57°

Therefore, the direction of the golf is 57°

Thus, the initial velocity can be obtained as follow:

U = 13.23 / Sine θ

θ = 57°

U = 13.23 / Sine 57

U = 13.23/0.8387

U = 15.7 m/s

Therefore, the initial velocity of the golf is 15.7 m/s

A light wave encounters a partial physical barrier, such as a wall with a hole in it. What is MOST LIKELY to occur?
tatiyna
Most likely, the light wave will be absorbed by the wall. Without any information as to the size and color of the wall, the location and size of the hole, or the location of the light wave, this is a generalized probability problem. For all of the places the light could be, it's more likely that it hits the wall than the hole (if the hole is less than 50% of the area of the wall).

Doc Brown has calculated his Delorean can accelerate at a rate of 2.52 m/s/s. How
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

304.89m

Explanation:

Given

acceleration a = 2.52m/s²

final speed v = 39.2m/s

initial speed = 0m/s (car accelerates from rest)

Using the equation of motion below to get the distance of Doc brown from Marty;

v² = u²+2as

substitute the given parameters

39.2² = 0²+2(2.52)s

1536.64 = 0+5.04s

divide both sides by 5.04

1536.64/5.04 = 5.04s/5.04

rearrange the equation

5.04s/5.04 = 1536.64/5.04

s = 304.89m

Hence He and Marty must stand at 304.89m to allow the car to accelerate from rest to a speed  of 39.2 m/s?
