A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward from rest with constant acceleration 34.3 m/s2 . The acceleration period lasts for time 8.00 s until the fuel is exhausted. After that, the rocket is in free fall. Find the maximum height ymax reached by the rocket. Ignore air resistance and assume a constant acceleration due to gravity equal to 9.80 m/s2 .

A model rocket is fired straight up from the top of a 55-m-tall building. The rocket has only enough fuel to burn for 3.0 s. But while the rocket engine is burning fuel, it produces an upward acceleration of 60 m/s2. After the fuel supply is exhausted, the rocket is in free fall and just misses the edge of the building as it falls back to the ground. Ignoring air resistance, calculate 1. Determine the height above the ground of...

A small rocket is launched vertically from the ground and experiences an upward acceleration of 5 m/s2. The engine burns out after 4 seconds and the rocket moves under the influence of gravity until it returns to the ground. You may neglect air resistance. Draw the position, velocity, and acceleration vs. time curves for the entire flight from t=0 to t=9.5 s. Take the +y axis to be upward. A) what is the Position vs. Time graph? B) What is...

A catapult launches a test rocket vertically upward from a well, giving the rocket an initial speed of 81.0 m/s at ground level. The engines then fire, and the rocket accelerates upward at 3.90 m/s2 until it reaches an altitude of 1020 m. At that point its engines fail, and the rocket goes into free fall, with an acceleration of ?9.80 m/s2. (You will need to consider the motion while the engine is operating and the free-fall motion separately.) (a)...

A kids rocket is fired from rest from the ground (y=0) at time t1=0s. As the rocket fuel is burning its fuel it moves vertically upward with constant acceleation of +4.25m/s2. At t2=12s all fuel is used up and rocket is in freefall and air resistance can be neglected in this case. what is the maximum height of rocket with respect to ground? Also how long after being launched does the rocket return to the ground? And what is the...
