Answer:
a) y= 3.5 10³ m, b) t = 64 s
Explanation:
a) For this exercise we use the vertical launch kinematics equation
Stage 1
y₁ = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ a t²
y₁ = 0 + 0 + ½ a₁ t²
Let's calculate
y₁ = ½ 16 10²
y₁ = 800 m
At the end of this stage it has a speed
v₁ = vo + a₁ t₁
v₁ = 0 + 16 10
v₁ = 160 m / s
Stage 2
y₂ = y₁ + v₁ (t-t₀) + ½ a₂ (t-t₀)²
y₂ = 800 + 150 5 + ½ 11 5²
y₂ = 1092.5 m
Speed is
v₂ = v₁ + a₂ t
v₂ = 160 + 11 5
v₂ = 215 m / s
The rocket continues to follow until the speed reaches zero (v₃ = 0)
v₃² = v₂² - 2 g y₃
0 = v₂² - 2g y₃
y₃ = v₂² / 2g
y₃ = 215²/2 9.8
y₃ = 2358.4 m
The total height is
y = y₃ + y₂
y = 2358.4 + 1092.5
y = 3450.9 m
y= 3.5 10³ m
b) Flight time is the time to go up plus the time to go down
Let's look for the time of stage 3
v₃ = v₂ - g t₃
v₃ = 0
t₃ = v₂ / g
t₃ = 215 / 9.8
t₃ = 21.94 s
The time to climb is
= t₁ + t₂ + t₃
t_{s} = 10+ 5+ 21.94
t_{s} = 36.94 s
The time to descend from the maximum height is
y = v₀ t - ½ g t²
When it starts to slow down it's zero
y = - ½ g t_{b}²
t_{b} = √-2y / g
t_{b} = √(- 2 (-3450.9) /9.8)
t_{b} = 26.54 s
Flight time is the rise time plus the descent date
t = t_{s} + t_{b}
t = 36.94 + 26.54
t =63.84 s
t = 64 s
According to the <u>Third Kepler’s Law of Planetary motion</u> “<em>The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”.</em>
In other words, this law states a relation between the orbital period 
of a body (moon, planet, satellite) orbiting a greater body in space with the size 
of its orbit.
This Law is originally expressed as follows:
<h2>
(1)
</h2>
Where;
is the Gravitational Constant and its value is 
is the mass of Jupiter
is the semimajor axis of the orbit Io describes around Jupiter (assuming it is a circular orbit, the semimajor axis is equal to the radius of the orbit)
If we want to find the period, we have to express equation (1) as written below and substitute all the values:
<h2>
(2)
</h2>
Then:
<h2>
(3)
</h2>
Which is the same as:
<h2>
</h2>
Therefore, the answer is:
The orbital period of Io is 42.482 h
Answer: The force constant k is 10600 kg/s^2
Step by step:
Use the law of energy conservation. When the elevator hits the spring, it has a certain kinetic and a potential energy. When the elevator reaches the point of still stand the kinetic and potential energies have been transformed to work performed by the elevator in the form of friction (brake clamp) and loading the spring.
Let us define the vertical height axis as having two points: h=2m at the point of elevator hitting the spring, and h=0m at the point of stopping.
The total energy at the point h=2m is:
The total energy at the point h=0m is:
The two Energy values are to be equal (by law of energy conservation), which allows us to determine the only unknown, namely the force constant k:
