A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward from rest with constant (net) acceleration 29.4 m/s2 . Th

e acceleration period lasts for time 5.00 s until the fuel is exhausted. After that, the rocket is in free fall. Find the maximum height ymax reached by the rocket. Ignore air resistance and assume a constant free-fall acceleration equal to 9.80 m/s2 .

Hi there!

We can begin by using the following formulas:

Δd = vit + 1/2at²

vf² = vi² + 2ad

v = at

We can break this problem into 2 parts:

Distance traveled with acceleration:

Δd = vi(t) + 1/2at²

The rocket starts from rest so disregard the "vi(t)":

Δd = 1/2at²

Plug in the given acceleration and time:

Δd = 1/2(29.4)(5)²

Δd = 367.5 m

Distance traveled after thrust stops:

Find the displacement up to the top of the trajectory using the equation:

vf² = vi² + 2ad, where vf = 0 m/s

Calculate the initial velocity using the equation v = at:

v = (29.4)(5) = 147 m/s

Use the above equation and plug in the given values:

0² = (147)² + 2(-9.8)d

Solve for d:

0 = 21,609 - 19.6d

19.6d = 21,609

d = 1,102.5 m

Add the two displacements:

d1 + d2 = 1,470 m

3. A bicycle has a momentum of 25.00 kg* m/s and a velocity of 2.5 m/s . What is the bicycle's
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

10 kg

Explanation:

The question is most likely asking for the mass of the bicycle.

Momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity. Mathematically:

p = m * v

Where p = momentum

m = mass

v = velocity

Hence, mass is:

m = p / v

From the question:

p = 25 kgm/s

v = 2.5 m/s

Mass is:

m = 25 / 2.5 = 10 kg

The mass of the bicycle is 10 kg.

In case the question requires the Kinetic energy of the bicycle, it can be gotten by using the formula

K. E = ½ * p * v

K. E. = ½ * 25 * 2.5 = 31.25 J

A waitperson carrying a tray with a platter on it tips the tray at an angle of 12 degrees below the horizontal. If the gravitati
Tasya [4]

Answer:1.04 N

Explanation:

Given

Gravitational Force on the Platter is 5 N

Tray makes an angle of \theta =12^{\circ}

This gravitational Force has components along and Perpendicular to Platter

Perpendicular Force W_p=W\cos \theta

W_p=5\times \cos 12=4.89 N

Along the Tray

W_{along}=W\sin \theta

W_{along}=5\times \sin 12=1.04 N

Thus 1.04 N is the magnitude of force that will cause Platter to slide down
