2. A model rocket has a mass of 300 g and an engine that generates 40 N of thrust. The rocket is launched vertically, so that the trust is directed straight up. It is a windy day, and the wind generates a constant force of 5 N horizontally to the east; you can ignore any other forces from the air such as air drag for this problem. A. Draw a free body for this rocket shortly after launch while the engine is firing. B. What is the net force on the rocket after launch while the engine is firing? Express your answer in component form. C. How much time does it take for the rocket to reach an altitude of 250 m?
