Question
A rocket is launched on a constant thrust mission in a vertical trajectory; g = 9.8 m/s 2 and drag
is small compared to gravitational forces. The takeoff weight is 350 kN, the specific impulse
is 300 sec. The maximum acceleration that the payload can experience is 7 g’s.
Calculate the maximum velocity increment (Du) in m/s that this rocket can provide to the
payload, and if it gives this velocity to the payload, determine the mass of the payload and the
mass of the propellant. (Neglect the weight of the rocket casing, structure, engines, etc., so
total mass = mass of payload + mass of propellant)

The “ln” is the natural log of m0/mf. How long would it take the engine to accelerate the rocket to escape velocity? (this assumes that the engine is accelerating the rocket only; we aren’t including the mass of the fuel) Is the ∆v enough to get from 0 m/s to escape velocity? If it isn’t, plug in the escape velocity for ∆v and solve for I (you leave the ln(m0/mf) the same). What is the minimum specific impulse you need to get off Titan? Key Points to know: - The gravitational acceleration of the Titan in m/s^2 1.66 m/s^2 - The weight of the rocket in Newtons on Titan is 332N. - The velocity of the rocket should be 4,370.73 m/s.arrow_forwardI think 96 is the right answer.arrow_forward

It lifts people through a vertical height of 15 m in 1.0 minute. Assuming all the passengers stand still whilst on the escalator, 75 people can step on at the bottom and off at the top in each minute. Take the average mass of a passenger to be 75 kg. (a) Find the power needed to lift the passen- gers when the escalator is fully laden. For this calculation assume that any kinetic energy given to the passengers by the escalator is negligible. (b) The frictional force in the escalator system is 1.4 x 10*N when the escalator is fully laden. Calculate the power needed to overcome the friction. Hence find the power input for the motor driving the fully laden escalator, given that the motor is only 70% efficient. (c) When the passengers walk up the moving escalator, is more or less power required by the motor to maintain the escalator at the same speed? Explain your answer. (0 & C, '90]arrow_forward
