How much fuel would be needed for a 1000-kg rocket (this is its mass with no fuel) to take off from Earth and reach 1000 m/s in 30 s? The exhaust speed is 1000 m/s.
A hammer of mass m = 0.455 kg is moving horizontally at a velocity of v = 4.5 m/s when it strikes a nail and comes to rest after driving the nail a distance Δx = 1.2 cm into a board. What is the duration of the impact, assuming the acceleration is constant during this time period, in terms of the given variables? What was the average force exerted on the nail, in terms of the mass, initial velocity, and distance traveled? What was the average force, in newtons, exerted on the nail?
If a rocket in space is initially at rest and then accelerates at a rate of 50 m/s 2 for one minute (which is 60 seconds), how fast will it be going at that point? Your answer should be in units of m/s but you should only submit the number for your answer.
