A 2.600-kg model rocket is launched vertically and reaches an altitude of 70 m with a speed of 30 m/s at the end of powered flight, time t = 0. As the rocket approaches its maximum altitude it explodes into two parts of masses mA = 0.910 kg and mB = 1.690 kg. Part A is observed to strike the ground 80 m west of the launch point at t = 6 s. Determine the position of part B at that time. The position of part B is m (east) and m (up).

A 2.1-kg model rocket is launched vertically and reaches an altitude of h = 82 m with a speed of 38 m/s at the end of the powered flight, time t = 0. As the rocket approaches its maximum altitude it explodes into two parts A and B, and the mass of part A, mA = 0.5 kg, and the remaining mass of the rocket is in part B. Part A is observed to strike the ground 93 m west of the launch point at t = 8 s. Determine the y -position of part B at that time.

A model rocket is launched from rest with a constant upward acceleration of 3 m/s2 under the action of a small thruster, Figure 1. The thruster shuts off after 8 seconds, and the rocket continues upward until it reaches its apex. At apex, a small chute opens which ensures that the rocket falls at a constant speed of 0.85 m/s until it impacts the ground. Determine the maximum height h attained by the rocket and the total flight time. Neglect aerodynamic drag during ascent, and assume that the mass of the rocket and the acceleration of gravity are both constant. Figure 1

Part 1) The clock in the image above has a pendulum of mass m = 1.19 kg that swings on the end of a rod that is l = 0.590 m long. The angular amplitude of the swing is α = 6.07 (which can be considered small). Assume the rod has a negligible mass. Determine the period of the pendulum in seconds. T = s Part 2) What is the maximum speed that the mass on the end of the pendulum has during its swing? v = m/s Part 3) The clock is powered by a 1.83 kg weight that falls slowly, taking one day to drop by 3.00 m. The falling weight supplies the energy to compensate for the energy lost through friction in the pendulum, ensuring the amplitude stays constant. Suppose that the weight reaches the floor and no-longer supplies energy to the clock. Estimate how long (in seconds) the pendulum will continue to swing (assuming the energy loss is constant with time). Tf = s
