Rocket Motion under Gravity Consider a rocket with an initial mass initial velocity vo traveling vertically in the positive y direction under gravity. The rocket ejects spent fuel at the exhaust speed vex relative to the rocket, as a result, m -dm/dt (where we have assumed dm < 0 as discussed in class). Determine the velocity v(t) of the rocket as a function mo and an the rocket's mass decreases steadily at a rate of rn of t.

Two bricks, each of mass M, head directly toward each other on a frictionless surface and collide, as shown. Brick A has twice the speed as brick B. Which one of the following statements is true regarding the forces the objects exert on each other during the collision? 2v – A В The magnitude of the force that A exerts on B is four times smaller than the magnitude of the force that B exerts on A. The magnitude of the force that A exerts on B is two times smaller than the magnitude of the force that B exerts on A. The magnitude of the force that A exerts on B is equal to the magnitude of the force that B exerts on A. O The magnitude of the force that A exerts on B is twice as large as the magnitude of the force that B exerts on A. The magnitude of the force that A exerts on B is four times as large as the magnitude of the force that B exerts on A.
IVIT IN UTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANUTHER A baseball with a mass of 145 g is thrown horizontally with a speed of 39.7 m/s (89 mi/h) at a bat. The ball is in contact with the bat for 1.15 ms and then travels straight back at a speed of 45.6 m/s (102 mi/h). Determine the average force (in N) exerted on the ball by the bat. Neglect the weight of the ball (it is much smaller than the force of the bat) and choose the direction of the incoming ball to be positive. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Vboat,y Initial position of the boat is: Ij = +
On a frictionless plane, a body with mass m1 hits with velocity v a second body at rest (mass m2) and connects to it. Subsequently, the composite body hits via a spring (spring constant k) a third body at rest (mass m3). a) Determine the speed v of the mass m1 such that m3 remains at rest, if the plane solely at the location of m3 is rough (coefficient of static friction μ0). b) Determine the speed of m3 after collision if the plane at the location of m3 is also frictionless.
Since a net force is equal to mass times acceleration, and a net force is also equal to the rate of change of momentum, then the rate of change of momentum must equal mass times acceleration. True False Consider a system of 2 objects, A and B. If the rate of change of momentum of the entire system (A and B together) is zero then The total momentum of the system must be zero. The total momentum of the system must be constant. The momentum of A must be constant, and the momentum of B must be constant. The total momentum of the system is conserved. the momentum of A must be zero, and the momentum of B must be zero. You don't have enough information to determine the momentum of A or the momentum of B.
A rocket takes off against the force of gravity. Consider this a non-isolated system. Derive the rocket equation formula relating velocity to the mass of the rocket and time. Let the velocity of the rocket be v(t) and the relative speed of the ejected fuel relative to the moving rocket be u. Ignore air drag.
