An object with a mass of 10.0 kg is falling under the effect of gravity near the earth's surface with negligible air resistance. There is a force of 55 N pushing it to the left (you can pretend that this force is due to wind if that helps). What is the magnitude and direction of the total force felt by the object? Note: if the magnitude is greater than 140 N then you have done this problem wrong and you...

A 2400-kg test rocket is launched vertically from the launch pad. Its fuel (of negligible mass) provides a thrust force so that its vertical velocity as a function of time is given by v(t)=At+Bt2, where A and B are constants and time is measured from the instant the fuel is ignited. At the instant of ignition, the rocket has an upward acceleration of 1.90 m/s2 and 1.20 s later an upward velocity of 1.50 m/s . Part A) Determine A....

15) The Earth's surface gravity famously has a value of about g=9.8 m/s2. Use the Law of Equilibrium to figure out the gravitational acceleration in low orbit, at an altitude of about 1700 km. The Earth's mass is about 6×1024 kg and its radius is about 6.4×106 meters. Answer: 16) Imagine a planet whose surface gravity is only a seventh. If its radius is 9.14×105 m, what is the planet's mass? Answer:

Robert has just bought a new model rocket, and is trying to measure its flight characteristics. The rocket engine package claims that it will maintain a constant thrust of 12.3 N until the engine is used up. Robert launches the rocket on a windless day, so that it travels straight up, and uses his laser range-finder to meaure that the height of the rocket when the engine cuts off is 10.2 m. He also measures the rocket\'s peak height, which...
