During launches, rockets often discard unneeded parts. A certain rocket starts from rest on the launch pad and accelerates upward at a steady 3.10 m/s2 . When it is 235 m above the launch pad, it discards a used fuel canister by simply disconnecting it. Once it is disconnected, the only force acting on the canister is gravity (air resistance can be ignored). How high is the rocket when the canister hits the launch pad, assuming that the rocket does...

You land in a spring-loaded cart (k=144 kN/m) (m=500kg) which instantly launches you along a 3.5m track (Mu-(0.1,0.05) that then enters a loop that has a height of 10m at the top. a. If your speed at the top of the loop is 12 m/s what is the initial compression of the spring? (constant friction) b. If the loop continues around and then launches off a 3.5m long, 30 degrees incline, how high will it fly? I use these to...
