Given: Rocket mass M departs vertically from
surface of earth( Re 6371km. g = 9.81m/s.Fuel is
mass m. V(0) is Om/s. Exhaust velocity is
r=0.05m/s.
velocity (u )of expelled gas is constant and
equal to u=8000m/s. Mass M = 1/4 mass m.
Determine the speed v(20) and the height
h(20) of the rocket after 20 secs. Did the rocket
reach escape velocity v(e) fot t=20s?
Suppose a 4 kg mass explodes, creating two debris objects, A and B,
having equal mass. If object B moves to the right with a speed of 5 m/s,
find the velocity, in m/s, of object A after the explosion.
[a] An asteroid with mass X kilograms (kg) is moving eastward at Y meters per second (m/s)
collides another asteroid, also with mass X kg, which is moving northward at Z m/s. They stick
together and keep moving through space. Draw a diagram of this interaction, labeling all the
relevant objects, quantities, and velocity vectors before and after the collision.
[b] What is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the two asteroids after they collide? Your
answer should be significant to two digits.
