Problem Information: The A team is still falling in a tank and have 90 seconds before they reach the ground. Their tank has a mass of 62,000 kg (with all ammunition inside) and it fires 20 kg shells at 1,500 m/s. Assume it starts with a constant downward velocity of 15 m/s. They need to slow down to 5 m/s to survive. To do this they fire the tank downwards. Remember to use the formula: M₁V₁¡ + m₂V₂i = m₁V1f + m₂V2f Problems: 5. At its starting velocity, how far will the tank fall in 90 seconds? English (U.S.) 6. What is the momentum of the tank before it fires? 7. If the A-team fires one shell downward, what will their new velocity be? Before Firing Text Predictions: On Editor Suggestions: Showing DELL After firing + 127% Fit x C
