Chapter 6: Q. 45 (page 156)

a. A rocket of mass mis launched straight up with thrust F鈫�thrust. Find an expression for the rocket鈥檚 speed at height hif air resistance is neglected.

b. The motor of a 350g model rocket generates9.5 N thrust. If air resistance can be neglected, what will be the rocket鈥檚 speed as it reaches a height of 85 m?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a). An expression for the rocket's speed at height hif the air is neglected localid="1649520749864" v=2Fthrust-mgmh

b). The speed of the rocket at height 85m is 54 m/s

Step by step solution

01

Part a). Step 1. Finding an expression

We can start solution with Newton's second law

ma=Fthrust-mga=Fthrust-mgm

Now, we can determine speed from an expression that includes acceleration and height

localid="1649520770861" v=2ahv=2路Fthrust-mgm路h

02

Part b) Step 1. Find the speed

Given that,m=0.35kgFthrust=9.5Nh=85mg=9.81m/s2

If we substitute values in the previous rocket's speed expression, we get

v=2脳(9.5-0.35脳9.81)0.35脳85=54.28鈮�54m/sapprox.

Suppose you attempt to pour out 100 g of salt, using a pan balance for measurements, while in a rocket accelerating upward. Will the quantity of salt be too much, too little, or the correct amount? Explain

Kat, Matt, and Nat are arguing about why a physics book on a table doesn鈥檛 fall. According to Kat, 鈥淕ravity pulls down on it, but the table is in the way so it can鈥檛 fall.鈥� 鈥淣onsense,鈥� says Matt. 鈥淎n upward force simply overcomes the downward force to prevent it from falling.鈥� 鈥淏ut what about Newton鈥檚 first law?鈥� counters Nat. 鈥淚t鈥檚 not moving, so there can鈥檛 be any forces acting on it.鈥� None of the statements is exactly correct. Who comes closest, and how would you change his or her statement to make it correct?
