Recall the discussion on spacecraft from the chapter opener. The following problems consider a rocket launch from Earth’s surface. The force of gravity on the rocket is given by F(d)=−mk/d2, where m is the mass of the rocket, d is the distance of the rocket from the center of Earth, and k is a constant. 172. As the rocket travels away from Earth’s surface, there is a distance D where the rocket sheds some of its mass, since it no longer needs the excess fuel storage. We can write this function as F(d)=⎨(−m↓1 k / d^2) if d < D (−m↓2 k / d^2) if d ≥ D Is there a D value such that this function is continuous, assuming m1≠m2?
Joe takes his little brother Andy down the the playground for an afternoon out. Andy would like to ride the seesaw, but the difference in their sizes, Joe weights 160lbs and Andy weighs 641lbs, makes this difficult. Joe sees a solution from his engineering class and moves the fulcrum from the middle to a new place. The seesaw is 3.5m long. After Joe moved the fulcrum how long was the seesaw on Andy's side?

The force exerted on a car by a prototype crash barrier crash is F=-(4400 + 50000S) N, where S in the distance in meters from the initial contract. Suppose that you want to design the barrier so it can stop a 2400kg car traveling at 100kph. Determine the average power transferred from the car during the impact if the duration of impact of the car is 0.33 sec.
