A rocket rises vertically, from rest, with an acceleration of 3.2 m/s2m/s2 until it runs out of fuel at an altitude of 800 mm . After this point, its acceleration is that of gravity, downward.

1) What is the velocity of the rocket when it runs out of fuel?

2) How long does it take to reach this point?

3) What maximum altitude does the rocket reach?

4) How much time (total) does it take to reach maximum altitude?

5) With what velocity does it strike the Earth?

6) How long (total) is it in the air?

A rocket is launched vertically up with no initial velocity. Propulsion is provided by the ejection of mass with constant velocity of ejection u = 66.0 m/s relative to the rocket and at a constant rate so determined that the initial acceleration is zero. The mass of fuel that can be ejected is 55.0% of the total mass at launch. Assuming constant gravitational acceleration, how long does it take the rocket to achieve maximum upward acceleration?

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)...
