A bottle rocket is shot straight up in the air with a speed 30 m/s. if the air resistance is ignores, the bottle would go up to a height of approximately 46 m. however the rocket goes up to only 35 m before returning to the ground. What happened? Explain, giving only a qualitative response.
In Section 2.4, we computed the force needed to accelerate a 1,000-kg car from 0 to 27 m/s in 10 s. Compute the force using the alternate form of Newton’s second law. The change in momentum is the car’s momentum when traveling 27 m/s minus its momentum when going 0 m/s.
