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

Why do the passengers in high-altitude jet planes feel the sensation of weight while passengers in an orbiting space vehicle, su
kykrilka [37]

Passengers in an aircraft are subject to the Normal and Gravity Force acting on them at a low 'orbit', so tiny that it can be many times compared to the same surface of the earth when speaking in general terms.

In a high orbit space vehicle or in the same space, said force decreases considerably or simply disappears, generating the sensation of weightlessness.

Remember that the Force of Gravity is given under the principle

F_g = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal constant

M = Mass of the planet

m = mass of the object

r = Distance from center of the planet

When the radius grows considerably the gravitational force begins to decrease.
