Question

Transcribed Image Text:1. The small rocket engines used in model rockets are rated by the impulse they exert on the rocket. The graph
below shows the force exerted by an engine during the 1.0 second from when it is ignited until when the fuel is
completely bumed.
a) What is the impulse of this rocket engine?
F(N)
0.2
0.4
0.6
0.8
1.0
b) One of these engines is put horizontally on a frictionless cart of mass 780 g so that it will accelerate the cart.
How fast will the cart be going after the engine has burned all of its fuel? The mass of the engine itself is small
enough that we can ignore it.

- The vehicle shown starts from rest at the bottom of the hill and accelerates up the hill due to the force FR from the road. Note that this is a static friction force and is not dissipative. Vrop = 9.7 m/s m = 1600 kg h = 50 m FR = 7300 N 0 = 25° A) If the vehicle reaches the top of the hill with the speed shown, how much thermal energy is dissipated in the process? B) Assuming that air drag, Fang , is the only dissipative force during this process, try to estimate the cross-sectional area of the vehicle "seen" by the air. In the formula for air drag, regard the car's speed as being a constant v = 5.0 m/s (this speed is roughly half of the starting and ending speeds). Use C = 0.5 for the drag coefficient and p = 1.25 kg/m³ for air density.arrow_forward1arrow_forwardA free hanging system of 5 kg weight, and 6 kg weight, tied together with a 4 kg rope is pulled upwards with a force of 300 N.
