Question
A new design of Saturn 11 rocket with mass 1.24 x106 kg has a propulsion engine that can eject gases at a constant speed of 376.44 m/s (vGas) by burning fuel at a rate of 4.73 x10 5 kg/s (dmdT). In full tank, the rocket can carry a fuel of mass 44.63 x10 6 kg.
If this design exceeds the velocity of 11,200 m/s it can can successfully escape Earth's gravity. Determine if this is so. Find its maximum velocity (velyZ). (Pitch Angle = 0)

When the person's heart beats, it pushes a mass m of blood into the aorta with speed v, and the body and platform move in the opposite direction with speed V. Assume that the blood's speed is 56.5 cm/s. The mass of the person + platform is 54.0 kg. The platform moves 5.95 ✕ 10−5 m in 0.160 s after one heartbeat. Calculate the mass (in g) of blood that leaves the heart. Assume that the mass of blood is negligible compared with the total mass of the person, and the person + platform is initially at rest. (Also assume that the changes in velocity are instantaneous.)arrow_forwardA sandbag of 30 kg is carried by a trolley of mass 250 Kg which moves at a speed of 24 km/h on a frictionless track.
