A catapult launches a test rocket vertically upward from a well, giving the rocket an initial speed of 79.6 m/s at ground level.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

The rocket is motion above the ground for 44.7 s.

Explanation:

The equations for the height of the rocket are as follows:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t²

and, after the engine fails:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

Where:

y = height of the rocket at time t

y0 = initial height

v0 = initial speed

t= time

a = acceleration due to the engines

g = acceleration due to gravity

First, let´s calculate the time the rocket is being accelerated by the engines:

(The center of the framer of reference is located at the ground, y0 = 0).

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t²

1190 m = 0 m + 79.6 m/s · t + 1/2 · 4.10 m/s² · t²

0 = 2.05 m/s² · t² + 79.6 m/s · t - 1190 m

Solving the quadratic equation:

t = 11.5 s (the other value of t is discarded because it is negative).

At that time, the engines fail and the rocket starts to fall. The equation of the height will be:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

The initial velocity (v0) will be the velocity acquired during 11.5 s of acceleration plus the initial velocity of launch:

v = v0 + a · t

v = 79.6 m/s + 4.10 m/s² · 11.5 s

v = 126.8 m/s

Now, we can calculate the time it takes the rocket to reach the ground (y = 0) from a height of 1190 m:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

0 m = 1190 m + 126.8 m/s · t - 1/2 · 9.80 m/s² · t²

Solving the quadratic equation:

t = 33.2 s

Then, the total time the rocket is in motion is (33.2 s + 11.5 s) 44.7 s

For an object moving with constant negative acceleration, draw the following:

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Kindly find the graphs attached

Explanation:

For figure 1: There is a steady increase in the position of the object as time increases. This is because despite the negative acceleration (deceleration), the object continues to move and cover more ground as time goes by.

<em>The straight line graph is observed because the acceleration is constant and not varying.</em>

For Figure 2: The graph of velocity vs time will have an inverted nature. This is because since the object is decelerating, it is reducing in its velocity as time goes by (increases). <em>This is also in a straight line since the deceleration is constant.</em>
