A model rocket takes off straight up. Its acceleration during the first 2 seconds of its motor burns is 20 m/s2. The model rocket continues as a projectile motion after the motor has burnt out. Neglect the aerodynamic drag. Figure 3 1.) determine the maximum altitude (height) the rocket reaches. 2.) determine the total time of flight from takeoff until the rocket hits the ground. 3.) determine the maximum velocity of the rocket during the flight.

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

A ship maneuvers to a position at a horizontal distance Δx1 = 2.50×103 m from an island's mountain peak with maximum height hM = 1.80×103 m, and fires a projectile at an enemy ship on the other side of the peak, which is at a horizontal distance Δx2 = 6.10×102 m from the peak, as illustrated below. The projectile is shot with an initial velocity vi = 2.50×102 m/s at an angle θ = 75.0∘. Assume no air resistance and ay = −g = −9.80 m/s2. a) What type of motion does the projectile undergo? What type of trajectory does it have? b) Find the maximum height hmax reached by the projectile. c) Find the total time of flight in the air Δttot just before the projectile hits the water surface. d) How close horizontally to the enemy ship does the projectile land? e) How close vertically does the projectile come to the peak?

A rocket is launched at an angle of θ = 50∘ above the horizontal with an initial speed vi = 75 m/s, as shown below. It moves for 25 s along its initial line of motion with an acceleration of 20.2 m/s2. At this time, its engines fail and the rocket proceeds to move as a free body. (a) What is the rocket's maximum altitude? m (b) What is the rocket's total time of flight? s (c) What is the rocket's horizontal range? m
