The engines expel 3.55 x 10^3 kg of exhaust gas during the first second of liftoff giving the rocket an upwards velocity of 5.7m/s. What velocity is the exhaust gas leaving the engines? (there is no need to consider the change in mass due to the fuel being consumed. the exhaust needed to counteract the force of gravity is accounted for and should be ignored.)arrow_forwardTwo 2.0-kg bodies, A and B, collide.

The collision is inelastic, but not perfectly inelastic. The box has a mass of 45kg and an initial velocity of 15m/s in the x direction. The ball has a mass of 55kg and an initial velocity of 25 in the y direction. The final velocity of the box was 13 in the y direction. What was the final speed of the ball in m/s?arrow_forward
- 44. The mass of the blue puck in Figure P9.44 is 20.0% greater than the mass of the green puck. Before colliding, the pucks approach each other with momenta of equal magni- tudes and opposite directions, and the green puck has an initial speed of 10.0 m/s. Find the speeds the pucks have after the collision if half the kinetic energy of the system becomes internal energy during the collision. 30.0° 30.0° Figure P9.44arrow_forwardA pistol fires a 2.57 g bullet.
