In a soccer match against Mexico in 2014, US Women’s National Team striker Alex Morgan scored a sweetheaded goal in the 79th minute of the game. Just as the ball left her head, the horizontal component of its acceleration was 225 m/s , and the vertical component of its acceleration was -200 m/s (assuming thepositive direction points up). If the ball has a mass of 425 g, what was the magnitude and direction of theforce she applied to the ball? Note- you can ignore the weight of the ball.
The Merlin rocket engines developed by SpaceX can produce 7.12 ✕ 105 N of instantaneous thrust with an exhaust speed of 3.05 ✕ 103 m/s in vacuum. What mass of fuel does the engine burn each second to produce this thrust? (Enter your answer in kg/s.)
If the rocket sled starts with onlyone rocket burning, what is the magnitude of its acceleration?Assume that the mass of the system is 2100 kg, the thrust Tis 2.4×104 N, and the force of friction opposing the motionis known to be 650 N. (b) Why is the acceleration not onefourth of what it is with all rockets burning?
I know this can be solved with composite body formulation, using the weights, but I am trying to solve this with only the formula that uses : (sum of areas)* (centroid) all over (sum of areas). That method or integration?
Recently, the Amazon and Virgin groups launched commercial space flights. These flights do not store fuel on board, instead, they inhale oxygen from the air. If the weight of one of these new rockets is 2420 kN, while a regular rocket is 19579 kN, what would be the acceleration of these two rockets close to the Earth's surface when a thrust of 25467 kN is applied?
