The rocket is launched vertical upward with initial velocity vo=0.Fuel is ejected with a given constant velocity, Vrel, and at burn-out time, t-tbo, the rocket reaches velocity Vbo-VE/2, where VE is the escape velocity from thesurface of planet Earth. Find a formula for the burn-out time, tbo (no numbers needed here).(b) At burn-out time, a prearranged explosion separates the rocket into two parts, with part A stopped in midair by the prearranged explosion, while part Bis propelled to a velocity VB>VE. Assuming a mass ratio, mA/MB-3, find the velocity of part B after the explosion.(c) Part B of the rocket now continues its travel into open space, moving radially outward from the center of the Earth, without additional propulsion. Ifprearranged explosion happened at an altitude h << re above the surface of the Earth, estimate the velocity of part B as it reaches a distance r = 10 re fromthe center of the Earth, with re the radius of planet Earth. 5(C) Use conservation of energy!21/2 MV 3 - GNOMEGMB ME10 TErewhere v is the rebuity reached by therocket when re 10 VE Now;22G MEVE = 26M6YE22V ₁² = 4 VETherefore:-2-+2V/² - 1/1/2212V=²-31 VE7x₂1²2

Professional Application (a) Calculate the maximum rate at which a rocket can expel gases if its acceleration cannot exceed seven times that of gravity. The mass of the rocket just as it runs out of fuel is 75,000-kg, and its exhaust velocity is 2.40103 m/s. Assume that the acceleration of gravity is the same as on Earth's surface (9.80 m/s2). (b) Why might it be necessary to limit the acceleration of a rocket?
Given the following data for a fire extinguisher-toy wagon rocket experiment, calculate the average exhaust velocity of the gases expelled from the extinguisher. Starting from rest, the final velocity is 10.0 m/s. The total mass is initially 75.0 kg and is 70.0 kg after the extinguisher is fired.
NASAs Saturn V rockets that launched astronauts to the moon were powered by the strongest rocket engine ever developed, providing 6.77 106 N of thrust while burning fuel at a rate of 2.63 103 kg/s. Calculate the engines exhaust speed.
You hold a slingshot at arms length, pull the light elastic band back to your chin, and release it to launch a pebble horizontally with speed 200 cm/s. With the same procedure, you fire a bean with speed 600 cm/s. What is the ratio of the mass of the bean to the mass of the pebble? (a) 19 (b) 13 (c) 1 (d) 3 (e) 9
Professional Application Ion-propulsion rockets have been proposed for use in space. They employ atomic ionization techniques and nuclear energy sources to produce extremely high exhaust velocities, perhaps as great as 8.00106 m/s. These techniques allow a much more favorable payload-to-fuel ratio. To illustrate this fact: (a) Calculate the increase in velocity of a 20,000-kg space probe that expels only 40.0-kg of its mass at the given exhaust velocity. (b) These engines are usually designed to produce a very small thrust for a very long time—the type of engine that might be useful on a trip to the outer planets, for example. Calculate the acceleration of such an engine if it expels 4.50106 kg/s at the given velocity, assuming the acceleration due to gravity is negligible.
Two identical particles, each of mass 1 000 kg, are coasting in free space along the same path, one in front of the other by 20.0 m. At the instant their separation distance has this value, each particle has precisely the same velocity of 800 m/s. What are their precise velocities when they are 2.00 m apart? Figure P13 74

Professional Application The Moon's craters are remnants of meteorite collisions. Suppose a fairly large asteroid that has a mass of 5.001012 kg (about a kilometer across) strikes the Moon ata speed of 15.0 km/s. (a) At what speed does the Moon recoil after the perfectly inelastic collision (the mass of the Moon is 7.361022 kg) ? (b) How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision? Such an event may have been observed by medieval English monks who reported observing a red glow and subsequent haze about the Moon. (c) In October 2009, NASA crashed a rocket into the Moon, and analyzed the plume produced by the impact. (Significant amounts of water were detected.) Answer part (a) and (b) for this real-life experiment. The mass of the rocket was 2000 kg and its speed upon impact was 9000 km/h. How does the plume produced alter these results?
