Question

1. A rocket is launched off the ground in which the foot pump produces 20 N [Right 60 Up] on the rocket

(m = 200g) for 0.15 seconds. *Neglect air resistance*

a. Draw an F.B.D. when the force is being applied to the rocket. 

b. What is the acceleration of the rocket as it is launched? 

c. How far does the rocket travel during the time the force is applied? 

d. Draw an F.B.D. when the force is no longer applied (while traveling in the air). 

e. At the end of the Force Applied, what is the:

i. Velocity of the rocket? 

ii. Velocity of the rocket (horizontally)? 

iii. Velocity of the rocket (vertically)?
