A tracking radar lies in the vertical plane of the path of a rocket which is coasting in unpowered flightabove the atmosphere. For the instant when 0 = 30°, the tracking data give r = 25(104) ft, r = 4000 ft/sec,and = 0.80 deg/sec. The acceleration of the rocket is due only to gravitational attraction and for itsparticular altitude is 31.4 ft/sec² vertically down. For these conditions determine the velocity v of therocket and the values of * and Ö.T+0

In an attempt to escape his island, Gilligan builds a raft and sets to sea. The wind shifts a great deal during the day, and he is blown along the following straight lines: 2.50 km 45.0° north of west; then 4.20 km 60.0° south of east; then 1.50 km 25.0° south of west; then 5.30 km straight east; then 1.90 km 5.00° east of north; then 7.20 km 55.0° south of west; and finally 2.90 km 10.0° north of east.

I need to solve v(sub y)=v(sub 0)sin θ(sub 0)-gt to find the time that it takes the projectile to reach maximum height (so I believe I'm solving for t?). I have previously found v(sub 0y) in part (a), but I'm unsure what v(sub 0) and v(sub y) are. How do I find those variables?
The average distance of the earth from the sun is about 1.5 x 108 km (Figure 1). Assume that the earth's orbit around the sun is circular and that the sun is at the origin of your coordinate system.

A space vehicle is coasting at a constant velocity of 19.3 m/s in the +y direction relative to a space station. The pilot of the vehicle fires aRCS (reaction control system) thruster, which causes it to accelerate at 0.337 m/2 in the + direction. After 59.8 s, the pilot shuts off the RCS thruster. After the RCS thruster is turned off, find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the vehicle's velocity relative to the space station. Express the direction as an angle (in degrees) measured from the +y direction.
