Crath Course QUESTION a rocket, on an unknown planct, launches straight upward. Starting from rest, the rocket accelerates uniformly until it reaches 25 m/s then maintains that velocity until its boosters shut off. It eventually falls back to the planet. QUESTION, ASSUME: • Starting at t = 0, the rocket accelerates, uniformly, upwards a total distance of 10 m, where it reaches an instantaneous velocity of 25 m's • The moment it reaches an instantancous velocity of 25 m/s, it travels 30 m upward at a constant speed, then the engines cut off. • The moment the engines cut off: the rocket is in free fall • From the time it initially launches (t- 0) to the time it lands back on the planet is 12 s • The acceleration due to gravity is constant on this planet. HOWEVER you may not assume g = 10 m/s • Air resistance is negligible QUESTION, DETERMINE: • The acceleration due to gravity on this planet

QUESTION a rocket, on an unknown planet, launches straight upward. Starting from
rest, the rocket accelerates uniformly until it reaches 25 m/s then maintains that velocity until its bosters
shut off. It eventually falls back to the planet.
QUESTION, ASSUME:
• Starting at t= 0, the rocket accelerates, uniformly, upwards a total distance of 10 m, where it
reaches an instantaneous velocity of 25 m/s
• The moment it reaches an instantancous velocity of 25m/s, it travels 30 m upward at a
constant speed, then the engines cut off.
• The moment the engines cut off: the rocket is in free fall
From the time it initially launches (t- 0) to the time it lands back on the planet is 12s
• The acceleration due to gravity is constant on this planet. HOWEVER you may not assume g
= 10 m/s
• Air resistance is negligible
QUESTION, DETERMINE:
• The acceleration due to gravity on this planet
