A toy rocket is launched vertically from ground level at time t = 0.00 s. The rocket engine provides constant upward acceleration during the burn phase. At the instant of engine burnout, the rocket has risen to 82 m and acquired an upward velocity of 90 m/s The rocket continues to rise with insignificant air resistance in unpowered flight, reaches maximum height, and falls back to the ground. The upward acceleration of the rocket during the burn phase is closest to 49 m/s2. 43 m/s2. 46 m/s2. 48 m/s2. 45 m/s2.
A toy rocket is launched vertically from ground level (y = 0.00 m), at time t = 0.00 s. The rocket engine provides constant upward acceleration during the burn phase. At the instant of engine burnout, the rocket has risen to 69 m and acquired a velocity of 40 m/s. The rocket continues to rise in unpowered flight, reaches maximum height, and falls back to the ground with negligible air resistance. The speed of the rocket upon impact on the ground is closest to 45 m/s 61 m/s 66 m/s 50 m/s 54 m/s
If a rock is released from a slingshot directly upwards, at what point in the trajectory will the velocity reach its minimum value? At about halfway between the release point and the maximum height on the way down At the instant that it is released from the slingshot At the instant that it reaches the maximum height At about halfway between the release point and the maximum height on the way up
A sandbag is dropped from a balloon which is ascending vertically at a constant speed of 6 m/s. If the bag is released with the same upward velocity of 6 m/s when t = 0 s and hits the ground when t = 8 s, determine the speed of the bag as it hits the ground and the altitude of the balloon at this instant.
A private jet carrying Parker takes off with a constant acceleration of 5 m/s^2. Romanoff jumps on just as the jet plane lifts of the ground. They took a flight 10 seconds on the jet then suddenly rhe Romanoff shuts the engine off and jumps out of the jet. The instant the engine shut down; the jet is assumed in free fall. Romanoff deploys a jet pack 7s after leaving the helicopter with a constant downward acceleration of 2 m/s^2. How far is Romanoff above the ground when the jet crashes into the ground?
A ball is thrown straight up from the ground with speed v0. At the same instant, a second ball is dropped from rest from a height H, directly above the point where the first ball was thrown upward. There is no air resistance. Find the time at which the two balls collide. Find the value of H in terms of vo and g so that at the instant when the balls collide, the first ball is at the highest point of its motion.
A ball is dropped from the top of a tall building. At the same instant, a second ball is thrown upward from the ground level. When the two balls pass one another, one on the way up, the other on the way down, compare the magnitudes of their acceleration:(a) The acceleration of the dropped ball is greater.(b) The acceleration of the ball thrown upward is greater.(c) The acceleration of both balls is the same.(d) The acceleration changes during the motion, so youcannot predict the exact value when the two balls pass each other.(e) The accelerations are in opposite directions.
A firework is projected from the level ground in such a way that v0y = 10m/s and v0x = 20 m/s.a) Find the time it takes the firework to reach its maximum height reached.b) Since the firework returns to the ground, it has the same initial and final height. Whenthis happens, the time it takes the object to land is twice the time it takes to reach its maximum height. Using this information, find the horizontal and vertical components of the velocity of the firework right as it lands.
